Messi logged 64% of his World Cup activity by walking, translating to a markedly lower pace than his usual sprint bursts. As the only outfield player with such a high walking share, the data underscores his ability to launch sudden attacks despite the reduced mileage.
Analysts note that this walking intensity, combined with his vision and positioning, continues to create scoring opportunities for Argentina.
