Harry Maguire turns into prime Lionel Messi against USA, dances past two players in brilliant moment

Harry Maguire produced a moment of magic as he skipped past two USA players with absolute ease, with fans joking he turned into Lionel Messi.

The Manchester United defender kept his place in the starting XI after being forced off in the win over Iran after suffering from blurred vision.

And he lit up the opening stages of England's Group B clash, showing off his dribbling prowess as he danced past two USA players.

Maguire kept the ball in play then held off one USA player before making a fool of Leeds United's Tyler Adams.

He was unable to complete his pass, but fans online loved him turning into a prime Messi for a few seconds.

One Twitter user wrote: "Harry Maguire turned into Prime Messi for a sec."

A second tweeted: "Maguire transforming into Messi. "

A third added: "USA letting Harry Maguire play like Messi. What is going on."

A fourth said: "Genuinely, HOW does Maguire turn into prime Messi when he puts an England shirt on?"

Another commented: "Maguire turning into prime Messi for 5 seconds."

Maguire has only played four Premier League games for Man United this season, but has started both of England's group stage matches, against Iran and USA.
