The Copa América final between Brazil and Argentina is of special importance for Lionel Messi. The Barcelona star has the chance to win his first national team title and put an end to a 28-year wait for Albiceleste without winning this intercontinental tournament.
“Messi will continue to be better, whether he wins or not. You don’t need a title to show that you are the best player in history, even your opponents already recognize that. Obviously, we all want to win this trophy a lot, even for the effort we made to keep Covid-19 away from this bubble», he explained at a press conference.
Remember that this is the sixth Copa America in which Messi has participated, having been in the final on three occasions. In 2007 he lost to Brazil and in 2015 and 2016 he saw the title slip to Chile.
