Argentinian International and five time world player of the year winner, Lionel Messi, has retired from international football after Argentina lost Copa America title to Chile for the second time in two years.
Chile had defeated Argentina in a drawn-out, but thrilling final that was determined by penalty shootout in the US state of New Jersey.
Messi and Lucas Biglia missed their shots in the match that had ended 0-0 at the end of extra time.
"For me the national team is over. I have done all I can, it hurts not to be a champion," he told reporters after the match, according to Aljazeera .
The 29-years old Barcelona star couldn't win the title for Argentina despite playing alongside Argentinian stars like Angel Di Maria, Sergio Aguero among others.
Report on abuses in Eritrea draws demonstrators, heated emotions.

ReplyDeleteCongrats to him.
ReplyDeleteGood for him
ReplyDeleteI pity for messi oo
ReplyDeleteSome people head sha dey inside buttocks. The guy hsn't won this particular tournament before, he's gotten to the finals three times before but they lost all three, this was his fourth and they lost again, and one ignoramus would come and call him bad loser. See who dey talk.
ReplyDeleteAnd you choose to insult a fellow creation of God because of differing views? May you find sense before its too late.
DeleteActually he is a bad loser. He should know that's football and he was unfortunate to be on the losing side. Why didn't Ronaldo and other nominated players retire when he was winning world footballer of the year back to back?
DeleteHe should learn to swallow the bitter pill in good faith
Life is not this serious woman. Take trailer loads of honey.
DeleteIf you know the meaning of bad loser nd the content it was used, you won't be sounding like a fool that you are. Bloody bastard
DeleteSo christabel u are the wise one for calling someone a bloody bastard. Red bororo like you, idiotic teenager not fit to air her public opinion.
DeleteHehehe! Sore loser!
ReplyDeleteEeyah.....
ReplyDeleteawww he didn't retire in a good way cus they lost and he failed to convert his penalty.....that guilt is gonna be there for some years
ReplyDeleteHe is retiring at 29yrs? Wat is he gona do next? Wow. Goodluck o
ReplyDeleteLol
DeleteHe will still play for his club na
He doesn't like defeat
ReplyDeleteI like his guts
Methink it's an honorable gesture.
ReplyDeleteMaradonna was right afterall, he is an excellent player but doesn't have the character and influence over the team. Somewhat of a timid personal. 3 finals in 4 years and no win. Sometimes it's not all about the talent. Retiring at 29 after just 3 defeats in the finals simply shows how strong his character is...quite weak.
ReplyDeleteI hope he's kidding though
You are plain foolish
DeletePrinceleaky... I ain't gat words for you. Stay blessed
DeleteLoser loser loser!!! CR7 all the way...a lone n team worker.arsenal prodigies are making me proud
ReplyDeleteFool like u Barcelona made Alexis so take several seat u trophyless arsenal fan, p. S bravo saved the penalty he is also a barca player so what d heck are u saying?
DeleteDon't give up Messi
ReplyDeleteStella you obviously know nothing about football to be calling messi a bad loser. He gets abused and spat on by Argentinian fans because they think he's not doing enough for the team but he single handedly took them to 3 finals in 3 years but always takes the blame for not winning even last year when he scored but all his teammates missed third penalties.
ReplyDeletePlease tell her
DeleteMake we run .mtcheeeeeeew escapee like him.
DeleteEscapeeeeeeeeeee
DeleteShut up ARTitude....come and explain to us how messi single handedly took them to world cup finals, when he didn't score at second round,quater final, semi and final
DeleteHe will certainly come out of retirement for 2018 world cup in Russia....one last try.
ReplyDeleteOh my!! What bad luck is this? It's so painful.
ReplyDeleteIt's a bitter pill to swallow having gotten to four finals and not even winning any.
Messi i love
ReplyDeleteHahahaha hahahaha hahahaha hahahaha, belle dey sweet me . CR7 all the way.#rude boy all the way.
ReplyDeleteMessi is still d best• Football is a team game and dts how Messi plays it. He has never attributed his success to him alone and I respect his decision, who luvs 2 be blamed all d time and to he'll with Maradona• I hope he changes his mind though and No Madam, he is not a looser • No need trying to compare him with dat Proud one sef...despite all d power power,Messi still rocks with ease on d pitch.
ReplyDeleteAbeg bring me some CR7 anytim anywhr,to me messi is jes lucky to get whr he is,CR7 is jes a god anywhr any team. #TeamCR7#ceilingFan#
