Lionel Messi’s international career approached her last station, after the Tango legend indicated that the upcoming Fenzuela confrontation in the World Cup qualifiers may be his last appearance on his country in the national team shirt.
Why Messi hints to international retirement?
“It is a very special match for me because it’s the last in the qualifiers,” said Messi after one of his matches with Inter Miami. I do not know if there will be friendly matches later or more matches, but it is a special match, so my family will accompany me. ” These words gave a strong impression that the end of his journey with Argentina is close.
Failure stations before moments of glory
For many years, Messi has lived tremendous pressure due to the ongoing comparison with Diego Maradona, and he continued to chase the dream of ending Argentina’s fasting from the championships since 1993. He lost the 2014 World Cup final against Germany, then fell twice in a row in the Copa America final against Chile in 2015 and 2016, which led him to announce the international retirement at the time before retracting his decision.
How Messi turned the table with Argentina?
The big transformation came in 2021 when he led his country to crown the Copa America at the expense of Brazil at the Maracana Stadium, then added the “Fenalesima” Cup title against Italy in 2022. In the same year, history was written by Tango to win the World Cup in Qatar after a final epic against France, to immortalize his image while raising the most expensive cup. Success continued to crown the Copa America 2024 in the United States.
