After scoring his 109th international goal, Lionel Messi expressed his intention to continue living day by day without worrying about the future, despite being 37 years old. Teammate Angel Di Maria, with 31 goals in 144 appearances, announced his retirement after Sunday’s game, leaving an impressive legacy in Argentine football. Coach Lionel Scaloni hopes Di Maria will reconsider, as World Cup qualifying resumes in September and the 2026 final approaches at MetLife Stadium.
