There is no declining the fact that Lionel Messi is one of the most tempting footballers of all time. He has been able to win every potential title for Argentina in the last three years. However, he has been able to win the Copa America title also. This title has been won by the Argentina team for the record 16th time.
For all Messi fans over the globe, it has been one of the most memorable moments in recent times. Also, it is the third final in a row that Argentina has triumphed under Messi. Previously, he also led the team to two big finals. The two finals are the FIFA World Cup in 2022 and the Copa America in ’21.
Apart from both of these, Argentina has also been able to win the Finnalissima in the recent past. So there are 4 cups for Argentina in 4 years.
In total, Messi has 45 titles to his name. The highest in the world. He has been able to surpass Dani Alves of Brazil to get to 45. On the way, he has also faced hurdles. In the last match win, he suffered an ankle injury. So, now it is doubtful whether he will be available for the next matches or not.
