Tweets @HEGS_com, an Argentine soccer writer and podcaster, via an interview he just did with a TV station:

quote:

Lionel Messi: 'The national team is over for me.' Oh, Argentina.

Messi: 'I'm taking this decision for me and for the many people who want this. I've tried so hard, but I'm leaving without managing it.'

Worth pointing out that Messi has been VERY pissed off with AFA for a while now & has made it clear at times during this Copa.

Man... This is sad. I want nothing more than to see Messi score a winning goal at the World Cup

I can't see he retiring from international soccer at this point.

He's just really upset right now. Sounds like a knee jerk reaction to me.

Higuain killed Messi. 3 damn times in on goal in an important final, three times a miss.

Stars as big as him shouldn't quit after a tournament that is played as often as copa America. Hard to take anything seriously in the heat of the moment. Think he'll go on at least two more years.
