However, Messi’s recent interview with Dsports has cast some doubt on his future with the national team. “In these moments, I don’t like to think too far ahead,” Messi said. “I’m enjoying and taking it day by day. Now I enjoy each day. It will last as long as it has to, until I feel it’s not possible anymore.”
There have also been concerns about Messi’s physical condition. He hasn’t been at his best during the Copa America, a notoriously demanding tournament. “With Canada in the first game, I felt very good physically,” Messi admitted. “With Chile, I had the adductor issue and didn’t play comfortably anymore. With Ecuador, I just made it in time too. I was fine from the injury, but I had it in my head that something was wrong.
“In the last game, I already lost the fear, and I think in these past days and in the final, I will feel better.”
Conclusion
The Copa America final promises to be a thrilling encounter, but questions surround Messi’s physical condition and long-term commitment to the Argentina national team. Can he overcome these hurdles and lead Argentina to another Copa America title, or will Colombia claim their first ever trophy? The drama unfolds this Sunday!
