Leo Messi, who this Thursday opened Argentina’s victory over Australia in a friendly match played in Beijing with the fastest goal of his career, insisted that this is not the time to look at the next World Cup, if he is going to play it or not, but ” think about what’s to come.” The ‘flea’ finally ruled out waiting for Barça, who aspired to his signing, and in the coming months he will put on the Inter Miami shirt.
After the match, played at the Trabajadores stadium in the Chinese capital, the captain of the albiceleste, current world champion, stressed that what he said (Qatar 2022 could have been his last World Cup) “is normal for age and time”. .
“It’s difficult for it to happen, but well, as I said recently, I enjoy the moment, day by day, being here. Now there are qualifying matches and the Copa América coming up. Thinking about the next World Cup when we just finished one is going a long way “, he pointed.
“In the national team we seek to enjoy day to day. During the last two years it was difficult for me because it was not as I would have liked. Now, I want to think about what is to come. As I said, now a new cycle begins. This continues, not we can keep what has already happened. We have to enjoy each reunion”, added Messi, who acknowledged that the friendly against the ‘Socceroos’ “was difficult to play due to the heat and humidity” but that they continue “with the same idea”. .
