Lionel Messi’s performance was legendary! The Argentine star dazzled on the field, doing as he pleased. In addition to his three goals, he also provided two assists—one to Lautaro Martínez and another to Julián Álvarez. Thiago Almada rounded off the scoring after coming on in the second half.
This was Messi’s first match on Argentine soil in 2024; he missed the September game against Chile due to recovering from an ankle sprain sustained in the Copa América final. And it was worth the wait. The star opened the scoring in the 18th minute after a pass from Lautaro. Still in the first half, he assisted Lautaro again in the 42nd minute and Julián Álvarez in stoppage time.
In the second half, the spectacle continued. In the 39th minute, he scored with his right foot, and a minute later, he combined with Nico Paz to finish the game with a beautiful left-footed strike. With this result, Argentina maintains its solitary lead in the tournament with 22 points, three ahead of second-placed Colombia. Gain the advantage with BBscore football.
