Lionel Messi has been used to these kinds of tackles all his life. For someone who is a nimble dribbler as he is, getting tackled is just second nature to him. In the game against Panama, he faced a horror challenge from two of Panama’s players, both at the same time.

Dilanggar dengan tackle horror (dua kaki, telapak kaki terbuka), kakinya berdarah-darah, namun dalam sepersekian detik sudah bangkit kembali, tanpa ada perawatan medis sedikit pun (bahkan hampir mencetak gol)🤯😱

Messi went down clutching his knee and it looked like a really bad one. On close inspection, you could also see there his knee was bleeding due to the impact of the collision with both players. Messi was down for a while and that was quite a scare. Luckily though, he got up soon after and everyone could breathe a sigh of relief.
