After helping Argentina win the 2022 World Cup in a stunning penalty shootout victory over France on Sunday, Lionel Messi has said he would not retire from international football.
„I won the Copa America and the World Cup in a short time. I love what I do, being in the national team, and I want to continue living a few more games being a world champion. I am going to take the Cup to Argentina to enjoy it with you,“ said Messi as quoted by ESPN.
Argentina’s first global championship since Diego Maradona led them to victory in Mexico in 1986 was the fulfilment of a „childhood dream“ according to Messi.
„It’s anyone’s childhood dream. I was lucky to have achieved everything in this career … and this one that was missing is here.
