Argentine President Puts A Call Through To Messi by impactinfluence: 2:39pm On Jun 28, 2016
Argentina’s president Mauricio Macri has
personally contacted Lionel Messi to try and
persuade the Barcelona star to not quit the
national team.
Argentina lost to Chile on penalties in
Sunday’s Copa America final, while Messi
missed a spot-kick and was in tears at the
final whistle.
After the match, the 29-year-old claimed that
his international career was over: “In the
dressing room I thought that this is the end
for me with the national team, it’s not for me.
“That’s the way I feel right now, it’s a huge
sadness once again and I missed the penalty
that was so important.” PLAY
But a spokesman for Argentina’s president
told AFP: "He [Macri] called him and told him
how proud he feels of the national team's
performance and asked him not to listen to
the criticism.”
Marci also posted his support for Messi via his
official Twitter page.
“I never feel greater pride in our team,” he
said.
“I hope the joy of seeing the best in the world
will continue for many years more.
#NoTeVayasLio.”
