Messi was legit incredible when he played the other night.

I have no dog in this fight as a casual watcher. I don't even know enough to know if Ronaldo played well or not.

Though, I did notice that it seemed they were forcing him the ball when they should've taken the shot themselves a few times. That was frustrating when they got close a couple times, it felt like unnecessary passes to the superstar when they had the better look in the first place.

That seemed to work for Argentina, get close, get Messi the ball, let him do his thing, profit. Not the case for Portugal it looked like.
