Captain Lionel Messi together with Angel Di Maria and Nicolas Otamendi lifted the trophy as Argentina beat Colombia to win a record 16th Copa America.

Lionel Messi, who was in tears after injury, amazingly joined his team mates to celebrate the country’s third successive major tournament.

Social media users described Messi’s decision to bring Angel Di Maria and Nicolas Otamendi to lift the trophy together as the best thing the captain did.

Meanwhile, the Head Coach of  United States (US) Soccer and our Men’s National Team, Gregg Berhalter has been relieved of his duties following their Copa America group-stage exit.

“Messi Lift The Trophy Again”

“Messi totally deserves this! He was teased for not winning international trophies, but now he’s soaking in that sweet, sweet victory! Messi the G.O.A.T.”

“Lionel Messi brought Angel Di Maria and Nicolas Otamendi to lift the trophy together. Captain!”

“would’ve been embarrassing if they didn’t win, especially with how rigged it was for them from the start…”

“We have to stop America to host next major international tournament like World Cup 2026. This must to. Not well for this Copa America security level been through”

“Argentina’s time wasting in OT made this an awful watch. How on Earth does the ref let them pull that nonsense. 2nd OT period was 1/3rd play and 2/3 nonsense. Just completely lame. Compare that to the last 5 mins of the Euro final which was legitimately contested and awesome”

“THE GOAT AND THERES NOTHING YOU HATERS CAN DO ABOUT IT”

“Next Inter continental champion vs each other for World Champion Cup!”

“From heartbreak to heartbreak to even more heartbreak, to eternal glory in the most perfect possible way with back to back Copa América’s and a World Cup in between. The road was long but he got everything and more in the end, Lionel Messi the greatest player ever lived.”
