Messi readies for last Argentina game
Lionel Messi, captain of the Argentina national team, revealed his personal jersey that he will wear in his final match with the national team against Benin on October 6th at "Monumental" Stadium in Buenos Aires. This farewell game marks the end of his international career, which spanned more than two decades. The new jersey features a departure from the traditional design, characterized by a sky blue color with a prominent vertical white stripe, with "Messi" and the number 10 written in gold, along with symbols inspired by the "May Sun" emblem. Messi had announced his international retirement in August, but the Argentine Football Association decided to hold a final match to honor him, as he continues to lead the team in achieving major accomplishments, including winning the 2022 World Cup and the 2021 and 2024 Copa America titles. The match will include celebrations honoring his career, during which he played 207 matches and scored 125 goals, becoming Argentina's all-time top scorer.
