Lionel Messi has retired from
international football after suffering
heartache with Argentina against
Chile in the Copa America final on
Sunday night.

The Barcelona forward has decided
to quit without winning a major
trophy with his country – having
been to four major finals.

Following the defeat at MetLife
Stadium in East Rutherford, New
Jersey, Messi said he was calling it
a day.



“I think it’s best for everyone, for
me and for many people who want
it “The choice for me is over, it is a
decision. I tried many times (to be
champion) but did not.”
