  • Argentina on to COPA finals with help of goal from Lionel Messi

    Argentina on to COPA finals with help of goal from Lionel Messi
    Jul 10 2024
    Lionel Messi, with his legendary left foot making more noise than his quiet demeanor, delivered a heartfelt message to his fans after leading Argentina to the Copa America 2024 final. In his usual soft-spoken manner, he urged everyone to savor these fleeting moments."It's crazy what this group did, what the Argentine national team has been doing. After this, much more importance will be given to all the finals that I and the old group had to play in," Messi said following the match at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. "We have to enjoy everything we are experiencing as a national team. What we have achieved is very difficult. We have to take advantage of it.""These are the last battles, and I am enjoying them to the fullest,"

    In 2007, a young Lionel Messi posed for photos with a baby in the dressing room of Camp Nou in Barcelona for a charity calendar photoshoot. At just 20 years old, Messi was already establishing himself as a rising star and would later be considered one of the greatest footballers of all time. However, neither the photographer nor Messi knew that the baby in the photos would also rise to international football fame less than 17 years later.That baby was Lamine Yamal, who, at 16 years and 362 days old, became the youngest player to score in the European Championships with his memorable goal against France in the semi-final.
