Hy het die W\u00eareldbekertrofee in 2022 omhoog gehou nadat Argentini\u00eb Frankryk n\u00e1 \u2019n strafdoelstryd in Doha geklop het en sodoende \u2019n wagtyd van 36 jaar vir die sport se hoogste eer be\u00ebindig het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hy het Argentini\u00eb ook as kaptein na Copa Am\u00e9rica-titels in 2021 en 2024 gelei en die Finalissima in 2022, die Olimpiese goue medalje in 2008 en die Fifa o. 20-W\u00eareldbeker in 2005 gewen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Julie se W\u00eareldbeker-eindstryd was Argentini\u00eb se tweede agtereenvolgende verskyning in die toernooi se eindstryd, maar Spanje se skrale oorwinning het Messi die kans ontneem om as w\u00eareldkampioen uit te tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ondanks sy uittrede uit internasionale sokker het Messi bevestig dat hy sal voortgaan om klubsokker te speel. Sy kontrak met die Major League Soccer-klub Inter Miami loop tot einde n\u00e1 die 2028-seisoen. Hy het die klub gehelp om die Supporters\u2019 Shield in 2024 en die MLS-beker in 2025 te wen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Oor die verloop van sy loopbaan het Messi 46 amptelike senior trofe\u00eb gewen tydens sy tydperke by Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain en Inter Miami. Sy individuele toekennings sluit \u2019n rekordagtige agt Ballon d\u2019Or-titels, vier Fifa Beste Manspeler-toekennings en twee W\u00eareldbeker Goue Bal-toekennings in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hy hou verskeie rekords, waaronder die meeste doele in \u2019n kalenderjaar (91 in 2012), die meeste loopbaandoele vir Barcelona (672), die meeste doele in die geskiedenis van La Liga (474) en die meeste hulp-doele in professionele sokkergeskiedenis (421).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Die president van die Argentynse Sokkervereniging, Claudio Tapia, het voorheen ges\u00ea die besluit oor Messi se toekoms is geheel en al persoonlik, en dat daar geen druk op die aanvaller geplaas is om aan te hou speel of uit te tree nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lionel Messi (39) het bevestig dat hy uit internasionale sokker tree en daarmee \u2019n einde bring aan sy glansryke loopbaan van 21 jaar vir Argentini\u00eb se nasionale span.
