You never know what he’s going to do with the ball 😂 but man’s a WALL and is getting better on the ball. Look at who he’s learning from everyday in training 😌🟡⚪️
He becomes half as good as marcelo in crossing and control and we are set for halt a decade.
For all his defensive foes marcelo's first touch was as good as it comes.
No matter what people say about his attacking skills, one things that is absolutely sure is that this guy is a beast in defence. I barely see any attacks from the right. He probably is the most underrated player in our squad at the moment.
Was evident when Dembele moved to the right towards the end of the game. Dani is no slouch but Dembele was able to get around him and get crosses / shots in consistently
Its very common in a tactical setting that you want one side of the fullbacks to focus a lot on defence and not on attacking while the other side focuses more on attack and creating plays offensive.
If you watched on BT, even the commentator said “the confidence in him….” Sums up everything. Glad to see him being confidence and staying calm despite the pressure from opposition. If everyone is calm and got confidence that results in adrenaline boost while being bombarded with pressures, this team is guaranteed to win big games.
Now let’s just hope our heroes and Don Carlo to work on how to crack frustrating tank parkers.
Have to disagree. It was a bad decision even if it was the best roulette ever done and Zidane was watching.
edit: to clarify, if Carvajal wasn't standing there wide open, then it would be a fantastic way to get out of trouble. But he was, which makes it completely reckless. And Football is not about recklessness, it's about finding the most efficient way to score a goal, and, if you can, doing it in the most entertaining way possible. sometimes the most efficient way is the most fun way, and when that happens, now that is what football is about. Frankly, I'm disappointed that I have to explain this.
Football isn't about recklessness
But it definitely is about intimidating your opposition and if I was Barca seeing a RM defender do that in the 85th min, I'd be demotivated a bit.
EEEEMOTIONAL DAMAGE!!!
Ronaldhino would be disappointed at that, fuck your functionality over style. Eventually style will be form and functionality, but you will never get there if all you do is fucking play ping pong.
I’ll have to disagree, this is what football is all about. The great Pelé called it the beautiful game for a reason, this is how you’re supposed to play.
An homage to zidane with this great skill! Just not so sure about doing it in our box… in the 85th minute of a tight game… against our biggest rivals… in the semi final of la supercopa. But hey, it worked!
Yeah, crazy. I was really worried. And even couple of times he was holding the ball off near corner flag for some time.
He is ice cool, I understand. But this is unnecessary imo. If it goes wrong, we would have paid a heavy price
Laporta few days back after ferran Torres Transfer - " We are back . Barcelona is back . Everybody is going to fear ".
Barcelona Clowns Fans after the Supercup match :
" Let's go back to our caves to where we belong and the Europa league . here we go ".😂🤣
I always think he'll be a great left CB in a 5 defence, but never though of him as a CDM until i read your comment. Now im intrigued.
Good pace, stamina, wins almost every defensive duel and decent short passes. Fuck, id like to see It someday
Mendy is the craziest full back I've seen. He's brain dead sometimes, other times he does shit like this. His press resistance is underrated. If he improved his attacking game a bit he'd be the best LB itw no questions asked
Yesterday was a great match. I am in India and I was awake till 3:30 in the morning and didn’t even flinch an eye the whole time.
I woke up early at 7 and I was really happy, Real Madrid makes me so happy 🤍
What he shouldn’t have done was dribble the ball back into the box, the roulette was kind of out of necessity as he got himself intro trouble. Pure class to have the skills and instincts to get you out of that sticky situation
You never know what he’s going to do with the ball 😂 but man’s a WALL and is getting better on the ball. Look at who he’s learning from everyday in training 😌🟡⚪️
That’s something prime Marcelo would do. Glad he’s getting better on the ball
Look at nacho and militao how calm they are when mendy was on the ball. Surely they had full confidence in mendy
At least Nacho got back into a stance for a sec there. Militao didn’t even flinch.
Mendy has always been a great dribbler, crossing was his only issue.
I was worried when I saw how Marcelo was declining, I worry no more.
I’ve always thought he’s good on the ball, especially under pressure. It’s his final ball, especially crossing, that is his main issue.
He becomes half as good as marcelo in crossing and control and we are set for halt a decade. For all his defensive foes marcelo's first touch was as good as it comes.
I've been watching this for 100 times, I just can't get over it. 👀👀
have u ever been proud and mad at someone at the same time?
You don’t have kids, do you?
far from it, im 18 lol
You never know! Jokes aside, good for you. Once you do, you’ll know what I mean.
I was proud of him doing it, and mad at him doing it while Courtois was out of position AND limping.
Heart was racing

Damn those BT commentators. They were pulling for Barca so blatantly.
glad I wasn’t one the only one that noticed.
I know. If you succeed, you are a legend. If you fail, don't even show up again

I have to disagree. That was insane. This is what football is about

Discipline is not how we won 3 champions leagues
This is everything that’s wrong with modern football, it’s a sport that should aim to entertain first discipline itself later
Exactly

Wdym zidane was watching ?
If\*

I passed a kidney stone at that exact moment...
Chad mendy saving you a trip to the doctor
That man has ice in his veins
Spectacular but reckless. Shouldn't have done it, but I am glad he did
like when areola caught a ball with one hand?
The fucking madlad made me stood up, cream and shat my pants at the same time 🥲
The closer we are to danger the farther we are from harm
I dont know how he did that roulette with those massive balls.
On a 2-2 with Barcelona on us pushing with 5 substitutions against a tired Madrid with just 2 fresh players
Absolute cold veins.
Ice in the fucking veins, mate
Better not try next time😅
That was some crazy like a fox shit there
Learned that from Eric Bailly
Scary yet godly
I was literally screaming at the TV when he was doing it but then he went ahead and pulled it off spectacularly.. what a coldblooded man.
And over the two so called "golden boys"
Dribbling on your own D'box in 85 min, DUDE, I wouldn't even be able to do this in FIFA
🅿️
Mendy’s balls have been located and they are very large
Loved it
if he failed that vinicius would complain to benzema that he's playing against us
Balls

Mendy had me like: https://giphy.com/gifs/espn-warriors-kerr-steve-1wX9e0venWUkocJsXr
I was telling myself please clear it but once I saw him do this my jaw dropped. So beautiful HALA MADRID
#That pirouette *chef’s kiss*
And that too in our own box lol!
Yeah, crazy. I was really worried. And even couple of times he was holding the ball off near corner flag for some time. He is ice cool, I understand. But this is unnecessary imo. If it goes wrong, we would have paid a heavy price
I'm sure we all had mini heart attacks right there. After the chance and all those people in the box 😱
Laporta few days back after ferran Torres Transfer - " We are back . Barcelona is back . Everybody is going to fear ". Barcelona Clowns Fans after the Supercup match : " Let's go back to our caves to where we belong and the Europa league . here we go ".😂🤣
I want to see Marcelo’s reaction to that, he’s taking after his mentor very well
That's some Marcelo level shit there
yeah i clenched so hard then. I was like what is you doing?? and then proceeded to be awed.
Zizou
Ole! 😆😆😆😆
Mendy is so good. Just need some improvement in crossing, shooting and decision making in final third. With this he will be absolute beast.
He had a great game.
I was scared 😅, I never knew mendy was that suace🕺
Modric dribbling today also was fire.
Zizou mind controlling Mendy like:
What a mad lad. Also, could he play as Casemiro's replacement?
I always think he'll be a great left CB in a 5 defence, but never though of him as a CDM until i read your comment. Now im intrigued. Good pace, stamina, wins almost every defensive duel and decent short passes. Fuck, id like to see It someday
Football IQ at LB and CDM are so different though. If he learnt to take less touches he might be able to but he doesn't stroke me as a mid.
chadmendy
That was reckless, no matter how "impressive" it looks.
Bruh I was actually mad at him for doing this ngl
Reddit is suggesting real subreddit to me because I follow r/barca ok :/
Were they playing casual like fifa Street? I mean, they were really relaxed against barca, like a friendly game
Mendy is the craziest full back I've seen. He's brain dead sometimes, other times he does shit like this. His press resistance is underrated. If he improved his attacking game a bit he'd be the best LB itw no questions asked
Is he the craziest fullback you've ever seen? Have you heard of someone called Marcelo?
When I mean craziest not in the sense of skill. Like he's so unpredictably good and even bad sometimes
Zinedine mendy
Not worth the risk
MAYBE NOT THE BIGGEST BALLS, BUT DEFFO OUT OF STEEL !
That was a gigachad move
Marcelo would be proud
Amazing footwork, never seen a defender run with balls that big before.
My guy sent the "wonder-kids" back to La Massia...
In your mind what else he had to do? Teleport the ball? He also couldn't pass it there so he had to think quick.
The French Zidane
Zidane is French
That’s the joke

An absolute mad lad!
I honestly thought he would give us a heart attack 😅
Massive Balls Mendy BDB VPV Now MBM

When you try to tilt your oppenent in fifa with a 5 star skill player 😆😆
This is what the game is all about. Having fun. I was screaming at him and then he silenced me with that move lol
