"paving an easy path for their current golden boy to win it all (messi)..."

The dude is 39 years old. And carrying a kind of mediocre team.

What paving? That they played Cabo Verde yesterday? Well, Cabo Verde took them to the wire.

Is it Messi's fault that they were playing Cabo Verde? No. Cabo Verde had every right to be there because Spain, Uruguay, and Saudi Arabia could not beat them.

Was Cabo Verde not supposed to be at the World Cup? No. They eliminated Cameroon. Legit team.
