Yeah exactly, the pride of this person is just silly. Unless he played at a top D-I school and did very well, there's no way he could successfully tackle the ball from Messi in 100 tries...I'd give a solid D-I defender a couple of tackles on Messi in all of those 100, the rest Messi would just easily dodge away, control the ball, create space, and then burn them or pass away from the inevitable double team.

It's like me in my 5th year of coding claiming I could out-code Linus Torvalds...like what?!?!
