Argentina's Copa América final match will not mark the end of Lionel Messi's international career, as the soccer legend confirmed his intention to continue representing his country. Despite previous retirements, Messi, who is now 37, remains focused on living day by day without worrying about the future. With an impressive record of 109 goals in international play, including 14 in Copa América games, Messi's dedication to the team is unwavering. On the other hand, teammate Ángel Di María plans to retire after Sunday's final, expressing gratitude to the Argentinean fans and his teammates for the success they have achieved together. While coach Lionel Scaloni hopes to change Di María's decision, Argentina aims to secure another Copa América title after winning the 2022 World Cup. The team's performance will be one to watch as they face either Uruguay or Colombia in the final match.
