SCARIEST VERSION OF MESSI 💀
May 28, 2011. Wembley Stadium. Champions League Final. Barcelona vs Manchester United. Pep Guardiola's greatest team. Against Ferguson's best side. 90,000 people. The biggest stage in club football. Messi destroyed them. 53rd minute. Villa played the ball into Messi, 25 yards out. He let it run across his body, shifted his weight and curled it with his right foot into the top corner. Edwin van der Sar — one of the greatest goalkeepers in Premier League history — couldn't move. Barcelona won 3-1. Messi was everywhere. Every dangerous moment ran through him. United's midfield — Carrick, Park, Giggs — couldn't get near him. Their defenders — Ferdinand, Vidić — the best centre-back partnership in the world at the time — had no answer. After the match Ferguson said — "I couldn't have done anything. Nobody could have stopped him tonight. He is the best player in the world. By some distance." By some distance. Messi was 23 years old. He had already won two Champions Leagues, two La Liga titles and was about to win his third Ballon d'Or. That photo — Messi celebrating his goal at Wembley, arms wide, in front of 90,000 people — is one of the most iconic images in the history of the Champions League. The night even Ferguson admitted there was nothing he could do. Day 6 of 30.

Welcome back to another episode of Stick to Football, brought to you by Sky Bet! Gary Neville, Roy Keane, Ian Wright and the returning Jill Scott react to England's win over Panama and assess where Thomas Tuchel's side stands heading into the Round of 32.

They also assess England's wide players and ask which winger is ready to hit top form at the business end of the tournament. With Reece James ruled out through injury, the team debates England's options at right-back after Jarell Quansah stepped into the role against Panama, and whether Tuchel should have taken Trent Alexander-Arnold to the World Cup.

Gary Neville: My England Regret, Rio Ban Strike & Why I’ll Never Leave Manchester
"This is Gary Neville as you’ve never seen him before - sitting with Rio in his Airbnb and opening up about some hugely personal topics including the loss of his father, the abuse he suffered when out on the street with his family and why he should never have pursued a coaching or managerial career. Despite Rio’s best efforts, Neville is typically self-deprecating about his own playing ability and instead focuses on the greatness around him - both in terms of mentality as well as the players who were technically brilliant. He gives insight into how the England setup changed from his time as a player to when he coached the national team under Roy Hodgson - and there’s huge praise for Harry Kane’s attitude and “seriousness” about the way he approaches football at the highest level. This episode is the very first time that Rio and Neville have discussed the time that Gary brought the England players together and threatened to strike because of the way Rio was treated by the FA which leads to a brutal and honest reflection on Neville's actions as the team’s union rep. Plus there’s detailed analysis on fellow Right-Back Trent Alexander-Arnold’s lack of International career - are England mishandling a generational talent? Or does he need to improve parts of his game to be considered for selection. 00:00 Harry Kane's Legacy & Introduction 00:16 Rio Meets Gary Neville in Manchester 01:00 Why Gary Neville Always Underrates Himself 02:16 His Greatest Achievement at Manchester United 03:40 From Midfielder to Right Back: Career-Changing Advice 05:36 Life After Football & Building Businesses 07:00 Work Ethic, Inspiration & Never Slowing Down 08:17 Playing for England & The Golden Generation 09:30 Why Neville Didn't Sing the National Anthem 12:49 Rio Ferdinand's Drug Test Ban & The Strike Threat 17:44 Leadership Lessons from Tony Adams & Sir Alex Ferguson 19:44 Manchester United's Legendary Team Spirit & Christmas Parties 21:29 Sir Alex vs England: Club vs Country 24:49 Coaching England, Valencia & Learning to Say No 26:15 Harry Kane: England's Ultimate Professional 28:19 Manchester United Recruitment & "Gold" Signings 29:29 Harry Kane's Leadership & Future Records 31:22 Did Gary See Harry Kane Becoming World-Class? 32:07 The Harry Kane Corner-Kick Debate Explained 34:08 Trent Alexander-Arnold: Genius or Defensive Liability? 39:39 How England Should Use Trent Alexander-Arnold 43:21 Family Life During Major Tournaments 44:37 Losing Parents & Coping with Grief 50:00 Neville Neville's Influence on Gary's Life 52:00 Family, Legacy & Lessons from Loss 56:00 Retirement, Identity & Life After Football 59:30 Being Recognized Everywhere in England 01:03:00 The Pressure of Fame & Public Perception 01:07:00 Modern Football, Punditry & Social Media 01:11:00 Advice for Young Players 01:15:00 Final Reflections & Goodbye Brought to you in partnership with Airbnb #ad. #worldcup2026 #GaryNeville #RioFerdinand #ManchesterUnited #MUFC #PremierLeague #ThreeLions #EnglandFootball #TrentAlexanderArnold #HarryKane #FootballPodcast #FootballInterview #BehindTheScenes Subscribe: http://bit.ly/15QO9WE Rio Ferdinand Presents: rioferdinandpresents.com Rio Ferdinand Presents Instagram: https://instagram.com/rioferdinandpresents Rio Ferdinand Presents Twitter/X: https://x.com/RioMeets Rio Ferdinand Presents Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rioferdinandpresents Rio Ferdinand Presents TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@rioferdinandpresents Rio Ferdinand Presents Threads: https://www.threads.net/@rioferdinandpresents Rio Ferdinand Instagram: https://instagram.com/rioferdy5 Rio Ferdinand Twitter/X: https://x.com/rioferdy5 Rio Ferdinand Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RioFerdinandOfficial Rio Ferdinand TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@rioferdy5 Rio Ferdinand Threads: https://www.threads.net/@rioferdy5
