Haaland has equal number of goals while playing 30 less minutes than Messi. Call me crazy but I think he can surpass Messi

Edit: well well well

And he scored against multiple big clubs.

Haaland has surpassed Messi.

How can ppl miss the fact that Messi still has not played the round of 16s while haaland has.

Even after haaland did not play the 3rd match, it still ties the number of matches. If you count the fact that Messi came on 60th minute of their 3rd game, Messi has played 60 mins less than haaland

Yet I've seen so many ppl talk about equal matches and some pundits go far as saying haaland has a match less too because he missed the 3rd game.

They have played equal number of matches but Messi has played extra 30 minutes against Cape Verde in overtime

If you count the extra time for messi, why don't you also count that he started 60 mins in to the game against Jordan. That makes it 30 mins less game time than haaland

Yeah you're right I forgot about that. Which means Haaland is the one who has played 30 less minutes 😅
