Unbelievable save. Inhuman.
Copa America 2016
Alexis off. Must be an injury.
Supposedly rolled his ankle early in the game. But he's been dealing with an injury all tourney.
what a play by messi
This ref so dramatic.
this ref
Messi es un perro
Exactly the same as last edition then, 0-0 and Pens. Let's hope the results are the same as well, but Chile is without Alexis and Vargas now.
last edition was a shitty drab game though. and it didn't have this ref. so many gifs he must've contributed today.
Poor penalty from Vidal. Tired legs
WTF MESSI
Messi
HAHA! I can't believe it!
That's a penalty. Fucking hammered it.
SAVED!!! Chile to win it now!
YYyeeeaaaaa back to back!
Oh Argentina...what a bottle job that was.
Delighted for Chile, but Argentina yet another final loss Incredible. First national team to lose 3 finals in a row.
messi will be slaughtered in argentina probably now
Chileeeeeeeeeee!
now please send alexis in one piece back soon
What a tournament this has been though. One of the best Copas ever and we have a deserving winner at the end.
Messi stands alone - he's ostracized by his team mates and I'd imagine even more so now by his country.
i didn't even see alexis in the celebrations. was he badly hurt when he got subbed?
Now we see Alexis, wins the golden ball award. Not sure how Messi didn't win it to be honest
oddly enough, if higuain had taken them two gifts from germany and chile each, messi's stock would be eeeeven higher by now.
VIVA CHILE MIERDA
This meaningless cup, put in the context of a replay of the previous final, became absolutely massive down here in the South of South America.
Bragging rights were at stake for a generation.
Messi said he's retiring from international football?
I really hope he has a change of heart and he plays the World Cup in 2 years.
him retiring from international football now would be absolutely unbelievable
Not cool
Understandable reaction. He'll be back for one last crack in 2018, surely.
well at least no-one will remember xhaka and ozils penos now
Holy fuck Messi has retired from international football.
apparently,
ESPN Argentina now confirming AgΓΌero and Mascherano "retirements"... also Lavezzi, Biglia, Higuain, etc. in the coming hours to days.
what the hell is going on with that team...
Surely not?
They've made it to 3 consecutive finals and lost all three. They think they've failed their country.
Maradona said "If you lose this final, don't come back"
Can't say I blame them for retiring, they're tried and failed. Respect for retiring and allowing someone else to step forward and try. It's a noble thing to do.
I suspect there's a lot happening behind the scenes as well. I half expect him to return in 2018 for the WC following a reshuffle to the NT.
Alexis retired Messi. Great!
If Messi stays retired I think it greatly hurts his legacy.
