Argentine superstar leads with record-breaking appearances and performance at the tournament
Lionel Messi, the Argentine superstar and eight-time Ballon d’Or winner, continues to make history at the 2024
Copa America. After a standout performance in Argentina's tournament opener against Canada, Messi has now made more appearances (35) at the Copa America than any other player. He has also become the first Argentine to participate in seven Copa America events, debuting in the tournament back in 2007.
In response to his record-breaking achievements, Messi has remained humble, expressing his happiness at participating in another official competition with the national team. He emphasized his focus on giving his best in every game, regardless of records.
Argentina began their Copa title defense with a 2-0 victory over Canada, a result Messi described as important for the team's confidence. Looking ahead, Argentina will face Chile next at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, with a win potentially securing their spot in the quarter-finals.
