Lionel Messi says he will not be hanging up his international boots after captaining Argentina to victory at the World Cup in Qatar.
Messi finally achieved his World Cup dream on Sunday in Qatar as Argentina beat France to lift the trophy for a third time. The Argentina captain scored twice for La Albiceleste as an exciting game finished 3-3 after extra time and went all the way to penalties. Messi then coolly converted his spot-kick as Argentina won the shoot-out 4-2 to be crowned world champions. The forward, who picked up the Golden Ball award as the best player of the tournament, went on to speak about his future after the game.
“No, I’m not going to retiring from the Argentina national team,” he told TyC Sports.
“I want to continue playing as a champion.”
Messi also said he had a feeling he was going to win the tournament this time around.
