Argentina Copa America

The Argentina Copa America team, a powerhouse in the football world, is gearing up for the much-anticipated Copa America 2024 under the guidance of head coach Lionel Scaloni. The iconic Lionel Messi, often hailed as the Greatest of All Time (GOAT), is set to lead the squad once again as the captain.

Argentina boasts an illustrious history in the Copa America, holding the record for the only team to clinch the title three consecutive times from 1945 to 1947. Their most recent triumph was in 2021, and with Messi at the helm, expectations run high for another stellar performance.

Despite their dominance, Argentina faced heartbreak in 2015 and 2016, reaching the final but succumbing to Chile in penalty shoot-outs on both occasions. Interestingly, they have never lost to Chile in regular time in tournament history.

The 48th edition of the Copa America 2024 International Men's Football promises to be a spectacle, although it has been postponed due to the scheduling conflict with another major tournament. The event is now slated to take place from June 14, 2024, to the end of July 14, 2024.

Lionel Messi, who recently became Argentina's all-time leading goal scorer during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, surpassing the legendary Gabriel Batistuta by three goals, is eager to extend his international career. Messi has expressed his commitment to representing Argentina at least until the next Copa America in the United States.

On the other hand, another star player, Di Maria, considered one of the best Argentine players of all time, has announced his retirement from the national team after the Copa America 2024.
