Why is Messi, who is over 30, still so energetic, and how did he do it?

Messi is 33 years old this year, but he still maintains excellent competitive form, and there are three main reasons why he can do this:(1) Their own outstanding competitive strength; (2) The configuration of teammates suitable for their own style of play; (3) Dedication to football.

Superior strength

When Messi was first selected for the Barcelona first team, few people were optimistic about this skinny boy, and most people thought that mediocre physical talent would greatly limit Messi's development, and later it turned out that Messi relied on his all-round and outstanding skills to stand out from the crowd, and finally reached the top of world football, and together with Ronaldo, he completed nearly 12 years of domination in football and created his own legend.

Messi certainly has his own shortcomings, but his technical talent makes up for it well. Even now, he is over thirty years old, past the "best age" of his career as a footballer, but his sense of the ball, the frequency of his feet, and the precise control of the ball are still unique in the world, which is the basis for him to maintain a stable competitive state.

Teammate cooperation

Football is a team sport, and if the core of the team wants to maintain a stable state, it is crucial to develop a reasonable set of playing styles around him. Messi has been the tactical core of Barcelona for more than a decadeIn the past ten years, his forward partners have changed again and again, and what has not changed is always Messi and the tactical style of play set around Messi. This tactical setting can maximize Messi's threat, and at the same time reduce the unnecessary loss of Messi.

Messi's stability has also benefited from this.

Focus on football

Messi seems to have been born for football, and his obsession and love for football runs through him on and off the pitchNeedless to say, the performance on the field is not to mention, off the field, Messi's world is his family in addition to football, and he often posts on social networks that he plays football with his three children. In addition, any lace news has nothing to do with Messi, and this total focus also benefits Messi a lot.

Messi does it by strength, he has strong personal ability and close cooperation with his teammates, so even at the age of thirty, he can be so energetic.

He insists on physical exercise every day, and then only eats steak in the catering, which is very good, and he is still very particular about his maintenance.

Messi is a famous footballer who does a lot of physical exercise every day in order to stay in shape and energy. On top of that, athletes like this famous one usually have their own nutritionists and fitness coaches, so it's no surprise that they're so exciting.

He has been trained for many years and has never been interrupted to persevere until now, and everyone's success is won by countless sweats.

A reasonable diet, coupled with adequate sleep, and the ability to never stagnate, are the main reasons why Messi can still be so energetic after he is over 30.

For Argentina's upset 1:2 defeat to Saudi Arabia, I think it is not that Messi is old, but also objectively reflects the decline of Argentina's economic situation and the competitive state of athletes.

First of all, let's look at the state of Argentina's athletes in the whole game, which is obviously not as good as Saudi Arabia, after all, their athletes are from the five major leagues, so some competitive states may be okay in the league, but once they arrive at the national team, the players still need to run in with each other, unlike Saudi Arabia, they may have been closed for a period of time, and the players are also familiar with each other, and the cooperation is relatively tacit. In fact, judging from this game, some of Saudi Arabia's cooperation in the second half and the technical and tactical level they showed can actually be seen that it has indeed improved a lot.

Some of the matches on the pitch also indirectly reflect some of the current state of Argentina, which was once the seventh largest economy in the world, even more than some developed countries in Europe today. But the glory of the past does not mean the current achievements, in Argentina also had a time when the per capita GDP was among the best in the world, when they relied on agriculture, but they did not seek development in a timely manner like China now, or seek economic transformation and blindly rely on agriculture to eat. In terms of agriculture, a considerable part of it depends on the weather for food, and Argentina's policy of achieving excessive welfare when the economy is good has led to economic development gradually unable to meet people's living needs, leading to a series of economic problems such as inflation.

These economic developments are also reflected in. In the past of football development, Argentina has a complete youth training system, but with the development of the economy, some clubs directly sell their young athletes to the five major leagues in Europe, and indirectly obtain the club's development funds, which has led to the lack of youth in their clubs.

Although Messi's state, including the overall internal sports state, may not have recovered very well, but these also indirectly reflect the decline of Argentina's overall economy, as well as the incompleteness of the entire football youth training system, and the cause cannot be completely blamed on Messi's old age.

In fact, it's not just Messi, the most obvious manifestation of any top attacker at their peak is often a drop in ability and speed. I know some people will give the stats: Messi has more people, the average number of players per game is still one of the best in Europe, and there are a lot of fast food and even human ball points in the game.

You say he's great, but not fast. Don't you watch the game? To be honest, Messi counter-attacked with the ball at his peak and was very fast.

If the opposing side only has 2 defenses and 1, the ball is basically a ** chance; And the current Messi, of course, often contributes wonderful breakthroughs, but there are often some 1v1 mistakes, which is hard to imagine in his peak, even a few years ago. As for why such a Messi is still superior to the whole of Europe in terms of extraordinary ability, he said an old joke: at his peak, Messi was the first in Europe, because he could only sneak up to the first place at most; Now Messi counts two, because he is still one of the best.

Now this Barcelona depends almost entirely on Messi's form to win the game. Not only has Messi passed the peak of his declining form and ability, but the entire core team of Barcelona is facing such a problem. We will see that Su Ya often wastes opportunities, and the success rate of one-on-one breakthroughs is basically equivalent to zero; Pique is eaten alive by weak team forwards from time to time, and the problem of slow turning is more obvious; Professor Bou's mistakes in midfield are also gradually increasing.

No, no, no. Suffice it to say, Barcelona were already in the middle a few years ago, but with the basic hopes of winning the title this year, the problem is becoming more and more acute. I'm not saying you won't win the Champions League, but honestly, even if you're lucky, it doesn't change the fact that you won.

It is true that Messi's level is so high that even Messi, who is no longer in his prime, is firmly at the top of the rankings of six teams – Totti, Hazard, Pogba, Cassano, Robertson, Tostangue and Chilavert, but Barcelona is no longer a top team. But when I think about it, it doesn't seem to matter.

In the second year of the 2002 World Cup, I fell in love with Ronaldinho. I've been following Barcelona since Ronaldinho moved to Barcelona, and I've been a Barcelona fan for 18 years in the blink of an eye. From Barça's decline in all areas before the transfer, to its rapid recovery to becoming a European hegemon, to its gradual decline now, my favourite team has almost always been at the top of Europe's hierarchy throughout my youth.

I have to say that, fortunately, I didn't experience the turmoil at Juventus, the decline at Milan, the decline at Manchester United and Arsenal. Of course, it tastes different from the ups and downs of his favorite team, but who wants to see their favorite team lose if they had to choose? It's like assuming Messi is still capable of scoring 90 goals a year, he's changed his style.

If Barcelona fail in this way, I have nothing to regret. Coach Zhang Lu said in Milan's Champions League match against Barcelona that there is only time to really suppress this Barcelona game - I didn't expect it to last so long, let alone Messi to last so long.

Yes. After the upset loss to Saudi Arabia, Messi said a lot of positive things in an interview: "We have no excuses, the team will be more united than ever.

I'm fine, we have to come together and cheer up. We have to correct what we did wrong and try to move forward. "I'm fine, it's just hurt from this loss.

While these words are very uplifting, the reality is brutal. As he gets older, Messi is no longer the Messi he used to be. Although some fans insist that the upset loss is because the Argentine team is too underestimated, the data will not lie, and Messi's main data in this game are as follows:

22 of 66 touches were broken, 3 dribbles were successful, 2 were successful, and 1 dribble was successful. Four of the 10 successful ground duels and two of the five successful crosses were both 40 per cent successful. Competitive sports are very cruel, survival of the fittest, speaking by strength.

No matter how good Messi has been and how brilliant his achievements have been, there will be a day when he will grow old, and this is a fact that no one can change. The fans have to accept this, and the Argentine team has to accept this, adjust Messi's tactical position in the team, and don't rely too much on Messi. Otherwise, Argentina won't be able to go far in this World Cup.
