Lionel Messi, the captain of the Argentine national team, commented on the game (2:0) against Canada that took place tonight in the first round of the America’s Cup 2024.
Publika.az reports that the superstar, who will celebrate his 37th birthday in 3 days, also talked about the records recorded at the meeting:
“We knew they would play like this. Canada is a tough team, physically strong, with very fast and aggressive players. It is important that our team starts with a win. We always try to play in the same form, regardless of the state of the field. This is our style of play and we try to stick to it.
However, today the condition of the lawn was not desirable. Therefore, we sometimes needed more time for processing or accurate transitions. This made things a little more difficult. But the main thing is that we won.
I am happy to participate in another official competition with the national team. I always say that I don’t care about records, I just enjoy the tournament. I repeat again: the main thing is that we started with a victory.”
It should be noted that on the night of June 21, the America’s Cup tournament in the USA started with the match between Argentina and Canada. The current winner of the tournament is the team captained by Messi.
