Fans react to Lionel Messi’s powerful performance against Canada in the Copa America 2024

Messi scored his first goal of the 2024 Copa America in the semi-final match against Canada, helping his team win 2-0. He has finally broken his goal slump in this competition, playing in his fourth encounter at 37.

The Argentine national team is aiming for four trophies in the last three years, including a repeat Copa America championship after already securing Finalasima and FIFA World Cup 2022. Up to this point in the tournament, the Messi-led side had managed to pull off most of its victories without the help of their famous leader after his teammates like Emi Martinez, and Lautaro Martine stood up for him.

Subtly guiding the ball past the custodian in the 51st minute, the Inter Miami attacker took advantage of a pass from Enzo Fernandez.

Messi has scored 109 goals for his national team and 14 in Copa America history with this goal. He has now scored a goal and added an assist earlier in the tournament, both against Canada.
