Lionel Messi is fine, thank you for him.

So of course, we can always argue that opposite, it was only about Honduras, that the 3-0 victory of Argentina is worth what it is worth.

But the Parisian player has so little fueled, even against any opponents, last year, that we can not not be ecstatic in front of a double.

"La Pulga" (the chip) is not yet, far from it, a player of Inter Miami, David Beckham's club playing in MLS who would like to attract him to Florida after his adventure at Paris SG , but if he becomes one day, he will know that the fervor will not be feigned to see him play.

The enthusiastic American public

It must be said that in a Hard Rock Stadium filled with 64,420 spectators vibrating like in Buenos Aires, Messi made sure to give them their money's worth, by being in all the good moves of the Albiceleste, now undefeated in 34 games, and which imposed itself without flinching and could even have made the bill more salty for the Hondurans.

His uncontrolled lob twenty meters from the opposing cages, after an interception by Enzo Fernandez who had just come into play, was a model of inspiration, ease and technical mastery, for his team's third goal (69th) then ultra-dominant.

His 88th achievement in 163 selections.

Earlier, just before the break, as a good captain, he had quietly scored the 2-0 penalty, taking the goalkeeper on the wrong foot (45 + 2), to kill any semblance of suspense.

Argentina will play again on Wednesday, this time against Jamaica.

The opportunity for Messi to continue his rise.
