The Argentine duo led their team onto the podium to lift the trophy after emerging victorious against Colombia.
Argentina captain Lionel Messi and Angel Di Maria, who are playing in their final international match, celebrated their second consecutive Copa America title following their Copa America victory over Colombia on Sunday night.
Messi, who didn’t finish the match with the Argentina team, left the game early in the second half due to an apparent lower-leg injury, but he was fit enough to lead his national team onto the podium alongside his longtime friend and fellow countryman, Angel Di Maria.
La Albiceleste stands at the pinnacle of men’s football with a FIFA World Cup title sandwiched between their back-to-back Copa America triumphs. Their focus is now shifted to the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup under the guidance of coach Lionel Scaloni.
As La Albiceleste celebrates their win, they remain hopeful for positive updates regarding Lionel Messi’s injury. They will proudly display their winners’ medals before returning to their respective clubs for the offseason with their second consecutive Copa America title secured.
