Lionel Messi and his Argentina teammates completed their final training session before they begin their Copa America challenge on Thursday night in Brazil.

The squad, managed by Lionel Scaloni, were put through their paces in Salvador at the Itaipava Arena Font Nova where they will play Colombia in their first Group B game.
Messi, the side's captain, was at the centre of the action as he spoke with teammates throughout the session as well as showing his repertoire of skills.
Argentina have not won the tournament since 1993 and this will be Messi's fifth attempt at trying to get a winners' medal.

Ode, edit it well next time. 40,000 for 9.30odds is 372,000. Where you see your 800k? Thief

so what advantage does it add to Nigerians economy and problem yet to be solved?

Great player but cr7 is a better player

......a god in the FIELD of PLAY.
The Only PLAYER that will score NIGERIA and I will celebrate it.

Messi fans have made watching football toxic. So much bitterness in them.

Meanwhile......

Messi fans abeg if want to troll use sense and troll.

What is "Portuguese Pamilerin"? Like seriously? Does that even make any sense. E no just enter at all.

It's like me calling Jayz "American Pamilerin". Abeg in jayz and the pamilerin guy who popular pass? Are they even in the same field? Many people don't even know what the pamilerin guy looks like sef.

That joke is only funny when it's the other way round. Like when they called peruzzi "onitsha offset". Even though one rap and one does afrobeat at least they are both in the music industry.

Messi fans make una try get sense. No wonder Messi never win trophies with his national team.

Is Messi the only player there

No mind that foooooool

The only thing that can mk this guy win this cup is if he plays as intelligently as ronaldo...forget skills and go for wins , control the team and focus... Cos if he looses out again, then no balon d'or for him again... even top 3

They should allow him...like Europe allowed Ronaldo shey?? If he is as good as cr7 , he should lead his country to victory like ronaldo and stop waiting to b fed like say na Barca
