One of soccer's biggest stars has a second World Cup goal - eight years less a day after his first.
Argentine superstar Lionel Messi failed to score at South Africa 2010, despite his widely recognized status as one of the sport's premier players.
The pressure on Messi to deliver in Brazil is immense, and he answered his critics in his team's first game of its 2014 campaign.
The goal was an absolute beauty. Messi worked a give-and-go with teammate Gonzalo Higuaín, evaded multiple Bosnia-Herzegovina defenders, and directed a shot off the post and into the back of the net.
You could almost feel his relief in the moments after it went in. Now that the monkey's off his back, you get the feeling it won't be eight more years until Messi gets on the scoresheet again.
