And by not being of clear mind, he wasn't flowing. It was as if he felt pressure that if he tried hard to score he would be viewed as simply a goal getter. Therefore, when he was going for goal he was forcing himself, rather than simply letting himself free to score. Even worse, there was a two on one where Messi completely ignored the teammate in one his left when a pass would surely have been the right play. When he didn't pass, but instead forced himself to try and score he looked real bad and self-centered. Surely a goal would have resulted had he played one of his marvelous passes, and it is surely a factor of being messed in his mind that he hogged the ball instead.
