Ok you guys, I've taken the Messi bit out of the title above. Please focus on something more interesting now.
Rules are rules. Mark it zero.
"Please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize." (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html)
That is, we specifically don't use the original title when it is misleading or linkbait, as the original title in this case was.
When we do edit a title, we try to use representative language from the article itself wherever possible—e.g. a subtitle, a phrase from the text, or something else where the article says neutrally what it is actually about. That's what I did in this case; the language came from the subheading.
