Maradona: Messi wasn't the best in Brazil

The Argentine legend says James Rodriquez should have been named the Player of the Tournament.

The Colombian superstar scored six goals, the most goals by a player at the Brazilian showpiece.

Messi found the back of the net four times in the group stages, however the four-time world player of the year failed to score in the knockout stages.

FIFA president Sepp Blatter says he was a little shocked about the decision, however he says Messi justified himself by his performance in the tournament and the build-up to the tournament.
