Argentina is always favorite in the eyes of Messi
After waiting for 28 years, Argentina won the Copa America title in 2021 and spent international trophies. Lionel Messi touched the international title for the first time. In 2022, the Albiceleste tasted the victory of the World Cup after defeating France under the leadership of Messi in Qatar. Argentina's name is at the top of the list of favorites in the fight for world cup or continental supremacy.
Ahead of another Copa America, Messi says his country is the favourite.
This year's Copa America will be played from June 20. Argentina will fight against Canada on the opening day itself. Their remaining two opponents in the group are Chile and Peru.
This time the fight will be in the United States, according to club football, which is now very familiar to Messi. Before the main tournament, his club Inter Miami is training the Argentine team. Messi is optimistic about winning the Copa again in a familiar place, 'Argentina is definitely the favorite in the Copa. We have won all the trophies in the last few years.
And when we didn't win anything before that, we were still considered favourites. Be it the Copa or any other competition, after the start of the game, like Brazil or any other team, Argentina goes into the field as favourites.'
Argentina were the undefeated champions in the last tournament. Messi also reminded that the task will not be easy this time, 'It is also true that the power of Latin teams has increased a lot. Uruguay is a good team.
There are also Colombia, Ecuador. Everything will be understood in the field. I think it will be a close fight but we are very close to winning the Copa.' Before the main event, Argentina will play a friendly match against Ecuador on Monday morning.
