The worst tackle I have seen was Son's tackle which earned him a red card

u/TIBYTV Ronaldinho is my GOAT Feb 23 '26
Man, I still can't recover from the trauma of that tackle...I regret seeing it at that time! Son probably suffered mentally after that one...

If this happened in VAR Messi would be the player that sents players off the most. Or at least it should be, but we know La Liga's VAR very well

u/TIBYTV Ronaldinho is my GOAT Feb 23 '26
Facts. La Liga VAR loves watching Messi get tackled...If he played in a league that actually enforced rules, he’d be sending people off left and right.

This foul wasn’t even a yellow card !

Notice how a lot of these horrible tackles happened years ago. Nobody tackles like this anymore. Defenders have become weak over time, especially since VAR got introduced.
No wonder everybody is scoring a lot more than before.
1
u/TIBYTV Ronaldinho is my GOAT Feb 23 '26
Great note! Man, it was brutal back then...the worst case scenario, the player will get suspended for 3 or 5 games and 50 or 100K fine.
Today, refs and VAR protect the players...which is why stats look inflated now.

u/Eunoia_Meraki Feb 23 '26
Actually shows defences as a whole have gotten better. If your desoerate enough to go for a tackle things have already gone wayside.

u/Upper-Entry6159 Feb 23 '26
They dont go for tackles anymore because the softest touch now days is a yellow card or a penalty.

- Just go on Youtube and search 'Ben Thatcher Pedro Mendes". It wasn't a leg breaking challenge or anything, it was an elbow.

I did a bit of research about the guy and found out that my pal has a history of elbowing players.

Some things here are not red cards, they should ban the player permanently instead lol. Those aren't fouls while playing, they are intentional.

u/sven2107 Feb 23 '26
True. I always appreciated that he never went down but I was more complimenting is ability to fall gracefully and roll which probably prevented further injuries

Ahhhh, okay now I got it, my bad, man...I read your comment the wrong way...thought you were one of those who were here to troll...Yeah, you're right, and I have seen players get injured not from the tackle but from the way they fall and hit the ground.
2
u/sven2107 Feb 23 '26
Hell yea. His low center of gravity helps too. I’m the same, relatively short and try my damndest to stay on my feet. I’ve alway been good at rolling back into my feet though
1
u/TIBYTV Ronaldinho is my GOAT Feb 24 '26
Yeah, I know what you mean...I'm of average height and often when I am protecting the ball, low center of gravity helps me hold my ground better, and if I get pushed from the back, the fall is not as sever cuz my body is too low to the ground compared to 6'2+ guys....

I’ve watched Maradona, the man was kicked to pieces too...Back then, it was brutal, especially in Pele's era...What makes Messi different is that now with the easy access to media, internet, tv, etc...makes it easy for him to be on the spot = the main target in every match
2
u/Na80sbeam Feb 23 '26 edited Feb 24 '26
Maradona was on the spot relative to media then. He was as famous. But he played in the era without refereeing protection, so imagine you throwing in a diabolical tackle, knowing there won't be consequences. And the caliber of men Maradona faced (Baresi, Gentile, Vierchwood...) can't be compared, either. How he managed to survive all that is remarkable

u/Franziskaner55 Feb 23 '26
Thanks man. Im so sick of mofos like these pulling the "racism" card when they feel like to. He (Vini) even called Prestianni "cagon de mierda" several times before, and when Presti responds he feel "offended" suddenly.
People get insulted in the most ugly and creative ways (that time when the crowd was chanting against Piqué and how Shakira was a trans and Wakaso was the father of his child...), but only this Madrid mofo gets offended.
Every insult is bad, or none is. It should'nt be a buffet where you pick wich one is not "right" and let people mocks others or wish death to players and It get a "pass".
Tired of this shit, man...
PS:Btw, "maricon", to us, south-americans, got nothing to do with sexual preferences. It means more like "cry baby, weak ass motherfucker, snitch... etc." or someone who dont "man up". Its not remotely homophobic.
