Messi Retires from Argentina National Team

The 39-year-old made the decision two days after Argentina's extra-time loss to Spain in the World Cup final. Messi's retirement was also influenced by the recent death of his father, Jorge, earlier this month. The legendary forward will continue playing at club level with Inter Miami. ipl-today.in

This marks Messi's second retirement from international football. He first announced his retirement in 2016 after Argentina's defeat in the Copa América final, but later reversed his decision. In his Instagram post, Messi thanked fans for their support over the past two decades and expressed his pride in representing Argentina.
