Messi's possible final Argentina appearance
The Argentine Football Association has announced Lionel Messi's invitation to participate in a farewell match against Benin on October 6th at the "Monumental" Stadium in Buenos Aires, despite his international retirement in August 2026. This announcement follows conflicting reports and an official confirmation indicating that Messi will return to officially conclude his career with the national team. The match represents a final opportunity for Messi to perform in front of his home fans after a two-decade journey that culminated in winning the 2022 World Cup. It will be his first appearance with Argentina since his retirement and marks the beginning of a new era for the national team following the loss in the World Cup final and changes in the coaching staff.
