By winning another Copa America title with Argentina, Lionel Messi has become the most decorated player in football history.
Lionel Messi went through a lot of trouble on Sunday in the Copa America final. After having to wait patiently due to incidents outside the stadium that delayed the start of the match against Colombia, the Argentine playmaker collapsed shortly after the hour mark.
Injured in the ankle, the former Barcelona player had to leave his teammates and once on the bench, the eight-time Ballon d’Or could not hold back his tears. The score was then 0-0 and the Albiceleste could not find the solution against the Colombian defense.
Forced into extra time, Argentina finally found the light thanks to Lautaro Martinez and Lionel Messi was able to smile again. And this is all the more so since this Copa America is synonymous with a new record for the Inter Miami player.
With 45 trophies now, he has become the most successful player in football history, dethroning Dani Alves and his 44 titles.
