TIL Desk Sports/ Lionel Messi has told of his burning desire to win a major trophy with Argentina as the Albiceleste bid to end a 26-year trophy drought at the Copa America in Brazil.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner was a part of the Argentina teams that finished runners-up at the 2014 World Cup, the 2015 Copa America and the 2016 Copa America.
“I want to finish my career and win something with the national team,” Messi said in an interview broadcast on Argentine television on Friday.
“I don’t want to be left with the thought that things didn’t work out. I want to pick myself up and try again. That’s life: fall down, get back up again and fight for your dreams.”
Messi said that family life had taught him to better cope with losses, whether playing for Barcelona or Argentina.
