To prepare for the 2024 Copa America, Lionel Messi and his teammates traveled to Miami, where they were welcomed by former Argentina striker Sergio Agüero. Messi is currently attending the Copa America with the Argentina national team. They traveled to Miami to rehearse before the first match. He received a comical greeting from Agüero, a former teammate.
So what happened?
As the Argentine team prepared to camp in Miami for the 2024 Copa America, Agüero gifted the team with several goats to pose with. The image was intended to give the impression that the best team in the world was ready for the competition.
WHAT DID AGUERO MENTION?
“I played with the GOAT and it would be great to spend the day with some goats too!” Aguero told Stake. Argentina have the chance to cement their place among the all-time greats if they manage to win the Copa America. Argentina are always favourites, but is there pressure? Not in my opinion. We are probably used to it. Right now, it’s about maintaining the concept and style in which our team has evolved. Thanks to this, we have achieved our successes.”
THE FUTURE OF MESSI AND ARGENTINA?
La Albiceleste are also the reigning Copa America champions after defeating Brazil to win the crown in 2021. In 2024, they were placed in Group A with Canada, Peru and Chile in a bid to retain their crown. They will begin the tournament with a match against Team Canada in the coming days.
