#1. Man of the match
You watch a Barcelona game and you begin to realise that superhuman players are actually a thing. Actually, it is not Barcelona, it is just Lionel Messi. The Argentine’s ability to dazzle viewers and bamboozle defenders has always left the mere mortals wondering as to how all that is even possible.
Lionel Messi has displayed brutal efficiency in almost every game since his debut. The Argentine rarely ever has a bad game and it is actually a real once in a blue moon type of a situation to witness the former Newell’s kid have a poor game.
And this meme is just to troll that. I mean, yeah, sure, Messi is cool, God-esque and all that, but there are often matches where he doesn’t really play to the best of his powers and, hence, doesn’t deserve the man of the match award.
And, yet, he goes away with the award. In most cases anyway.
