Honestly, that Nigerian keeper probably had the best game of everyone. Messi did instigate a lot of action but the one play that scored a goal was more a Nigerian defensive fail than on the keeper, and everything else that would have scored the keeper ended up saving. Pretty cool game to watch all around. Messi seems to be one of the few players that doesn't miss by much if he does miss, and he just had too many of those slim misses in this game...I'm sure he probably thought afterwards they should have had 2-3 goals if he played up to his own standards.
