Is Messi the Eminem of football? Comment below! Also pop on any reaction requests. Grab your signed merch now 🤟www.knoxhillmusic.com
Ronaldo is my idol but Messi is another breed
Also to answer your question messi is the EMinem of Football, He dribbles like Eminem dropping Bars
And please do a reaction video to Cristiano Ronaldo too before the SIUUU MOB will come after you lol
I saw this video and clicked on it, Liked it it. Didn't even watch it(yet). The only thing wrong with this, is the title....remove "is" and "?" 😂. As an avid football fan, there really is no other sport like it...and I'm not biased. But he has proven it over and over again. Cr7 is great! The living embodiment of a physically complete player. But Messi...he's got this talent, a gift...It's unexplainable. One can only understand if they've seen it begin when the torch of Barca was handed to him by Ronaldinho. The end of an Era and the beginning of a Legacy.
If you're going to dive into football reaction, then I as a brazilian and a São Paulo supporter, need to ask you to react to Rogério Ceni, our legendary goalkeeper who scored more than 130 goals in his career and even outscored Ronaldinho and Messi on 2005. He also holds so many records.
"Playing football is very simple , but playing simple football is the hardest thing there is" -Cruyff
Beautiful quote.
❤
Suits more to Iniesta❤
He must be the goat huh
Who would have thought that Knox Hill was a football fan? Well done, my man!
exactly a football fan not soccer
I would assume most people who have played professionally in Europe would appreciate Messi's tallent and have some commentary, but Knox is a good annalist on top of that.
He PLAYED football in Europe....!!!!
He was a professional football player
@@edbaihaqi5767 I just said that
My dad is 73, he watched pele live..he played football his whole life and he's a real madrid fan, he literally gets angry whenever someone compares messi with anyone, he says he's convinced messi isn't a human being.
Kind of the thing that is said isn't it?
Messi is an alien.
C. Ronaldo is peak Human. Or a robot according to some.
Messi is made by an artist. Ronaldo is made by an engineer is another one.
Best comment I've seen this year. Bless your Dad bro ❤
So you think someone that isnt human would need a massive amount of hormones, an entire career served on a silver plate full of gifts and krruption and the necessity to pay and control the media to protect him and push his agenda only to be able to compete against Ronaldo? Dont make me laugh!
The world already chose his goat🐐🇵🇹
So you think someone that isnt human would need a massive amount of 💉, an entire career served on a silver plate full of gifts and krruption and the necessity to pay and control the media to protect him and push his agenda cant compare with anyone? Dont make me laugh!
The world already chose his goat 🐐🇵🇹
@@Londronablethe massive disrespect to aliens.. aliens dont rely on gifts and corruption, being inside of their comfort zone, hormones and protection from the media nor they fill their stats in friendly games. Sounds more like a frauD
There aren't even words to describe him. He's the best there has ever been or ever will be. A gift from God.
not at all the best.. these pessi fans bro lmfao
@@dkane2040 who is better?
@@samwilliams0901 I guess his mom dribbles better with balls than messi ever could..
@@samwilliams0901 Maradona
@@jkdure it’s not totally unreasonable to suggest that Maradona is close to Messi in terms of natural talent. However, Messi is so far clear in terms of stats, trophies, consistency, longevity, and he did it against a much higher standard of athlete.
That goal against Betis at the Benito Villamarin, the keeper just stood up and basically applauded, the entire stadium was shouting Messi's name and that was an away stadium
Yeah man one of my favourite goals
True. I remember when that happened. No one-and I mean NO ONE-in that stadium saw the possibility of a chip goal from that spot & set up until about 2-3 seconds after Messi had decided exactly what he was going to do (on the previous pass). Even when the ball was in the air on its way toward goal, people’s brains were still trying to catch up with what they were seeing. Like: *”Wait a minute…he can’t do that. He’s not in scoring position. Nobody does that shot. Everyone passes or dribbles from there. THIS DOES NOT COMPUTE.”* Lol
That’s partly why even the opponent’s fans stood & lauded him with “Messi. Messi. Messi” cheers. For the love of the game. Another reason was b/c this goal completed his hat-trick that day (no pens). GOATness.
@@KoYou9NWTM "... are you kidding me? You thought, you seen it all..." 😂
I was shocked by this goal. But i was most surprised by the Betis fans. They all chanted his name. One of them keep saying "Madre mia Messi, madre mia Messi."
I am not football guy, Can someone rate this goal by difficulty ? I mean from 1 to 10, how hard this is ? That chip from that distance must not be easy in my eyes.
@@dj_jxit's an 11/10 easy
In my opinion, one of the virtues that make him "the alien" of football is the man who serves as a vessel for the athlete.
He is not a spotlight seeker, he is above all, a team player. That and the fact that he seems to have eyes above his head make him an artist of passing at the right time and to the right player.
He was born in poverty and with a congenital disorder that threatened any prediction of a future in sport... his character was forged in adversity, and his love for football, added to his family values, led him to consecration of what he is and will always be: the boy who clung to the ball as if it were a slingshot and faced all the Goliaths that life put in front of him, until he became the man who has no parallel in what he does.
His game is as brilliant as himself, I have never heard him put down other players, if you ask him directly you will only hear praise. And in times when he didn't do particularly well, he never allows himself to be self-indulgent or blame others.
The way he stays attached to his roots, the humility with which he expresses his gratitude for his achievements (among which he never fails to include his wife and children, his family and friends), if you add to all that the number of goals, longevity, his way of dribbling and all the magic he displays on the field, a magic that manages to imbue the spirit of those who play with him...
The facts definitely make him what you call the GOAT.
For some "The best player of all time" is redundant, we simply say: Messi.
You bring up some excellent points, which I absolitely agree with. However, I would like to add one:
Messi plays football at the highest difficulty level.
He never dives. In a time where the vast majority of his colleagues in other teams decide to go down easy, in order to gain a penalty or a freekick in a favorable position, Messi keeps playing.
As a defender, when you are playing against an attacking player that you know have the capability of diving or going down easy, you must be careful. You can't be flying in recklessly or hold his shirt too tight, or he may choose to go down.
Defenders know that Messi doesn't dive, defenders know that they can (and must) play harder vs him than other attacking players. It is also basically standard praxis for every opposing team to design their entire defensive strategy in order to maximize their probability to stop Messi.
These things combined mean that Messi is playing football at the hardest difficulty possible. And yet... ?!?!
He manages to be the best player in the history of the sport.
@@qenjaboy Excellent contribution and one of the most important points, it's a shame I overlooked it.
Maybe because after reading and rereading "Messi is a dog" (Messi es un perro) by Hernán Casciari without tiring, I was a little scared of the possibility of repeating what someone had already described... although I must admit that you achieved it masterfully.
Yeah messi scored 5 penalties like an alien and surpassed Ronaldo❤
OOOOOH!!!!!!!! as Argentinian thanks and i think these were the most heartfelted words ever and the most ones making me cry............. WOW and just WOW!! GRACIAS!!!!!!!!!
He’s the Eminem of Football.
iwas just about to writte this I swear 😂😂
Even if you think Eminem is the goat the gap between him and the next best artist is way closer than messi.
No one will ever to compare to
Messi
@@yousifkhalid5983no white artist could and will never make it out of the 90s hip hop scene that was full with only black rappers. So yes, it is comparable
Bro, that's borderline insulting messi. Don't even. Messi has been in his prime for 80-85 percent of his career (except for first psg season, and very few patches here and there). And when he's not his playing his best, it's still better than most players. There's levels to this game.
Eminem's prime ended after he dropped eminem show.
@@14_Phoenix If you think the albums after the eminem show aren’t eminem rapping “better than most” rappers then you’re just an idiot I’m sorry. The difference is the same, people try to downplay both to elevate others but in the end these two are the one that had it the hardest coming up and they blew away the world with it. No footballer is close to Messi as much as No rapper is close to Eminem.
After his 8th Ballon D'Or, now he gets his first Knox Hill Certification, decorations won't stop 😂
😂😂😂
This is an awesome surprise! Never thought I'd catch you watching Messi... hope you enjoyed it!
Edit: Holy sh*t your comments! Somebody's a fan!
Only one word to define Leo, SUPERNATURAL! ✨️🐐
i didnt expected knox to have this football knowledge. he knows what he is talking about. Knox if you are reading this comment ,make some more videos reacting to football and stuff man, will love them.
Knox played pro in europe for a few years before his doctor told him if he kept rolling his ankle, with his history of doing just that a ton, he might never be able to walk properly again
KNOX EXPANDING HIS DOMAIN TO FOOTBALL NOW AS WELL? WOAH. And yes, Leo is the 🐐. No competition, no one close.
Fun fact Knox was a pro footballer himself 😊
Yeah Knox played in Europe......
Yes he is bruh, just by three simple Criteria.
1. The most complete player of all time, the only player who mastered the 4 aspects of Football (Goalscoring, Dribbling, Playmaking and Set Piece Taking / Free Kicks)
2. He is the most decorated Football Player of all time leading the table with 44 trophies and most importantly the most decorated player INDIVIDUAL TROPHIES wise since Team Trophies are mostly team effort based. Individual Trophies are more crucial for this debate and he has:
-8 Ballon D'or
-2 FIFA Best
-2 UEFA Best
-2 Golden Balls (World Cup MVP trophy)
-6 Golden Boots
-5 Playmaker Best
-2 FIFA Men's Player of the Year
-2 Laureus Best Sportsman of the Year
And just to add the cherry on top, he recently won the World Cup. Not for proving that he is the Goat of course he already is- But to cement it because that's the only excuse haters had for him for not being so. Regardless of all that he now won every possible title in football! Perfecting his career with the biggest trophy of them all! The World Cup.
3. G/A Record + Man of the Match Awards:
-Messi now has the most G/A in football history with 1182 (821 goals and 361 assists) in 1047 games which is unfathomable even for someone who doesn't know ball.
-Messi has 306 Man of the Match awards in 628 games making him the most decisive the MVP player in half of the games he played in his entire career since 2009? Insanity!.
Followed by Cristiano Ronaldo who has 175 in like 650 games.
PERFECT! Could not have found a better comment with FACTS! Thank you!
If the game of football still remain the same as messi play today in the future, a man can only surpass messi as a complete player if he can dribbling, goal scoring, playmaking, taking free kick as good as he is and also defending as the best defender or goalie today. That's the only way for the next generations to surpass him as a complete player. Can u imagine the possibility there will be a player like that in the future...i am not saying it is impossible, but try to think and calculate the chances, and yk how blessed we are witnessing him playing live today.
Dont forget it was that 5 alien-like penalties which got our goat a worldcup and ballond'or which Ronaldo can only dream of since he is not likeable❤
@@TropyPush maybe if he wasnt so arrogant he would be more likable
stay mad
As someone in his mid 30's, he's the best I've seen. Zidane/Ronaldinho were the best I saw before Messi. As good as they were, I genuinely think their legacy won't test the time of Messi
In FIFA15 they introduced messi's feint skill but even the emulation from the devs wasn't as good as the real thing.That's just how good messi is😅🐐
You can see messi has a deceptively powerful shot even if he's not known for it per se. Insane how he's an all-time great in every offensive category. There might not be a player like him for decades to come.
He's a blessing to the football world. I always get emotional watching his highlights. The Greatest of all Time by far. ❤
Me to bro😢....i just wish to go back in the days 😊...he just makes me smile 😊
What a pleasant surprise watching you react to a Messi's video. He means the world for us, he gave us everything and you can't get anyone humbler than him, thank you for this, greetings from Argentina!!!
This was a nice surprise, react to more Messi from Magical Messi please.
Best messi account by far, I would recommend "Lionel messi - the GOAT - official movie"
I'm not a soccer fan at all! I couldn't name another soccer player if I had too. But by just watching this I can tell this dude has some real talent!
"this dude" is the greatest athlethe of all time, no one matches him at all. he is not from this planet
Football*
@@sindrek632yeah he finally surpassed another dude Ronaldo with 5 penalties like an alien❤
@@TropyPush ? still crying?
@@sindrek632 crying with your momma😇
You have to react to his most famous goals playing for Argentina with the local commentary. It's nuts
Knox is just a spectacular human that can see the details in every duscipline ........amazing ❤❤
Messi is gifted. So flexible, so Real, nothing to compare. He uses his talent well
More Messi reactions please!
Liking his goals is like liking the beat of a song just wait till u get to his lyrics 😁
The ultimate G.O.A.T 👏🙏
He’s ♾️,
he’s an Alien,
he’s just Messi
First time interested and aware of football players for me is Messi. At 5 I love art and I see Messi as an art when he play with the ball, at that time I love football game especially he play tiki taka with barca, it is pure art.
Xavi, iniesta, messi that was THE TRIO of all time.
What messi can do with so little space, and so many defenders so close to him.
Busquets was so important to that trio too
La Pulga, El Cerebro and The Conductor of the Barca Orchestra.
@@samkipling5881 Agreed! And Puyol as well. All in tune with each other.
That goal 5:21 should've won goal of the year just for the class of that finish
Thank you for the reaction
Love from Argentina 🫶🏻🇦🇷🇦🇷
I love your content ❤
He is the reason I Love Football❤❤❤
The fact you know so much about football being american is on the same level as Messi's talent ;D
Great to get the take of a football pro on Messi. He's the player that got me interested in football and personally I think he is the 🐐❤️. Btw the guy commenting in the very beginning was Jose Marino; Ronaldo's former manager 😂
Ronaldinho and Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Just Different, together w Messi that’s my 3 fav players
knox reacting to football can't get more better I guess
Knox checking out on football aswell, did not expected this... 😂
Whats his real name?
Also these are the best players teams and managers in the world he was playing at the time not smaller leagues like France and USA. Literally nobody could stop him all his passes or plays where so unique yet so accurate it was like magic the ball would go places nobody know was available
What makes Messi special is that he just does everything. There are and have been players that are great goalscorers, great dribblers, great playmakers, great passers, great set-piece takers, and so on and so on. Messi isnt great at one or two aspects, he's great at all of it. Moreover, he's been the best for longer than some people have careers. It's just mental.
Knox, Loved the reaction now we need the reaction for the other goat of football.. None other than Cristiano Ronaldo
3:14 ' you should watch the game through eyes of Lionel Messi ' in which he explains how he thinks while playing...very good video..and great reaction tho
Wow! Never knew you were a football fan! That's awesome to see! Would be awesome to see you react to more! 🔥🙏
Well, this is a very welcome surprise ! And a beautiful one at that ! More of Leo please ! 🙏
💯 the G.O.A.T there's never been a more naturally talented all round player and we may never see another again. We are so lucky to be living in this era when it comes to sports and music to have the privilege to witness some of the greatest artists ever and in some sports witnessing the greatest players there has ever been.
In football we have the likes of Messi and Ronaldo ( i don't like him personally but can't deny his talent )
In Snooker ( if you follow it ) we have Ronnie o'sullivan who is the greatest we will ever see pick up a snooker cue and someone you should react to he's a genius.
Tennis we have Novak Djokovic and also Rafael Nadal and the recently retired Roger Federer and there's many more too we are truly privileged regarding talented people.
Bojan is now the scout for Barca
Knox knows ball😂🙌🏽💯🔥
great reaction man...i always love seeing u react to my favorite music and now my favorite sport ....i would love to see u react to Ronaldinho ,,,he was also someone special he just looked like he was out there having fun all the time and he was a big part of messi growth.
Bojan was supposed to be even better than Messi in the younger teams, but he's admitted in interviews that couldn't cope with the pressure, he didn't like it... so at the end it was the hunger that gave Messi the edge. And as a side note, I think i remember that Bojan ended up being a distant Messi relative.
Modern era? No doubt! But all time? Pelé holds that spot, for me!!! Can you tell im in my early 50s?! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Love the football content. Should throw some in the mix!
Each time I watch a video of Messi magic I cry, tears of amazement and joy and thrill and and and….
React to Ronaldo moments too
Yes he is
Knox you surprise everytime I can't believe how knowledgeable you and all never thought you fellow football.
I was surprised to see a football reaction on this channel. I thought he just did music reactions and breakdowns. I was pleasantly surprised to see his acute knowledge on football (especially the fact that Spain prizes possession, football intelligence etc). Props
Knox now you should probably react to "cristiano ronaldo The master of skills"
You can probably look into Shohei Ohtani, who landed a 700 million dollar deal with the Dodgers recently. He had to undergo a second TJ surgery, but he has been an insane player for the last three years and got two MVPs, only barely losing to Aaron Judge's monster season in 2022, which kept Shohei from 3 consecutive MVPs.
I would actually argue that he wasn't as good in 2021 vs 2022/23. His last two seasons on the mound were better.
It will be interesting to see how his 2024 shakes out since he's not pitching.
I love that, more of this would be great!
So sad thinking that the era is over! I grew up watching this man! He was my hero. I always feared the day it all ends! Can’t believe its over
Yes because his beards weird 🔥🐐
Messy is the Deepthrottle Don of football ⚽
There will never be anything like him, ever ❤
Pure sport art, this man is not human, the speed with which your brain decides what should be done is not normal.
No, he is not. He is up there, but Pelé still the goat.
There is no way Pele is better than messi. If messi was in Pele era it would not be a close.
if Messi was in Pelé era there would be no such thing as the treatment that Barcelona provided for him. Pelé is not about just numbers, but big titles and impact on the game.@@sfletsplaye
Bro even pele said that messi is better himself😂@@victormon7eiro
CR7 is the best 🐐🐐🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Based on what? Like what are you basing your opinion on? I'm always curious to know how you can even defend Ronaldo at this point.
😂❤@@samwilliams0901
never would’ve thought knox be a football fan too, 😭😭 (just found out he was a ex-pro, mad respect 🙌🙌🙌)
No doubts about that..... it's pointless to make questions about Messi ....he's the GOAT 🐐. No questions about that
Ronaldo is better
At penalties.
@@waynelowe3329 shut up your just mad Ronaldo is the GOAT 🐐🇵🇹
After knowing you were a pro football player too my respect for you grew 10 folds.
Yes he's the🐐
I'm happy to know Knox is my favorite player fan too (L. Messi)
One of the best reactions videos I ever watched, you actually understand the brilliance of Messi.
Danm!! Am excited for you reacting to this!!!
I love it that Knox loves both the people I idolize so much. Em and Messi are the two most influential people in my life❤
No offense to my brothers from the US, but this is like the first time I actually hear an American speak about football in a way that I know he watches and knows ball ngl. We are lucky to have witnessed his career, what a legend. The GOAT.
Edit: well I didn't know Knox was a player himself, so yeah it shows!
Yeah, Bojan was so talented but injuries and bad choices in his career destroyed his life as a footballer. He is in Barcelona board now, working as a connector between second and first team. Who knew Knox was football fan. Appreciate it Fam
Bojan was basically crushed by the pressure. He could play but he stumbled, got injured and glcouldn't find his form again.
great reaction...I've watched Messi his entire career and it's great to have someone who played the game and understands it break his talent down the way u did.
Messi was doing this as a kid honestly look at clips of when he was a child the skill was there then hes just perfected it as hes got older
The thing what really flashes me the most about Messi is how he can keep his balance. As an ex-player in the amature ranks I know how hard it is to keep Balance on the field, even harder when you have to dribble past defenders, jumping over legs, taking cuts and everything. The best example for that ist the shot at 12:00. To put this shot in, you have to be in the right Balance. If you lean a bit to much back or forward you either shoot the ball into the stands or it rolls over the pitch. Than the perfect timing at the swing of his foot. He get it in the perfect spot and perfectly in the middle of his swing. Plus, it was a volley, so the ball didn't touch the ground first to lose some speed. To sink this ball in in this manner with the first touch it's just unhuman.
Knox Hill, you are the GOAT of reactions. I didn't know you know a lot about soccer. Thanks for your insightful comments in rap and now soccer. You are the best.
#Lionelmessi legend is king of football world , he is the best greatest versatile completed football player of all time in the world.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Excelente reaccion , muchas gracias por seguir trayendo estos goles unicos de nuestro Capitan , saludos desde ARGENTINA.
Wow. Never knew Knox loved football too!! Damnnn I'm even more of a fan now.
Knox you honestly impress me with how much knowledge you have in so many different topics. You're a total expert when it comes to rap, no doubt. But seeing you talk about football like this with the level of understanding and analyzing in a way only you can do surprised me. Big respect to you and much love from Sweden!
Finally our GOAT in your radar
Messi and CR7 made each other better each year. That 2 deserve a special place in Football history. It would make all the sense a C. Ronaldo reaction as well. Cheers nice one dude!
Didn't know knox is a football fan, he definitely knew what he's talking about.
what a surprising reaction!! we love the goat
love from the world cup winner country
Knoxx hill reacting to Messi....what parallel universe did I stumble into
The reaction on Ronaldinho would leave you mind blown for sure! Maybe you could react to his best plays.
I have followed knoxhill for as long as I can remember but I never knew he played football goodness bro I give you my whole bag of respect 😊😊😊
Gracias por reaccionar a este gran ser humano, con tanta emoción y sentimiento, eso es lo que logra él, amar lo que él hace, como lo hace, feliz de que haya nacido en esta tierra. Abrazos desde 🇦🇷❤️
Great analysis bro! Is good to hear this kinds of things from non south american or European people. U know what u're talking about, Messi is unmatch!
Greetings From Buenos Aires Argentina!
It was Johan Cruyf in Barcelona, who changed the criteria of acceptable height of players in the Barcelona football academy (where they develop promising youth). The same academy then produced Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, and others.
A messi fan watching a messi fan react on how messi does messi tings 🥶⚡
Well, that's an unexpected and welcome branching out (I'm still waiting for that Tick Tick Boom reaction tho xd)
Yes, next question ♥️
Knox be breaking down everything man. 😂 I love this guy.
