Messi netted the crucial second goal as Argentina triumphed 2-0 over Canada in the Copa America semi-final at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium on Tuesday night, securing their place in the tournament’s final.
At the stadium, Messi’s wife Antonela joined their sons Mateo, Thiago, and Ciro for a photo, captioned: “Another final!!! Let’s go Argentina!!!” Throughout Messi’s Copa America journey, Antonela and their children have been steadfast supporters. The 37-year-old’s goal in the semi-final marked his 109th for the national team, placing him second among men’s international top scorers, just 21 goals behind Cristiano Ronaldo.
Following the semi-final victory, the Inter Miami player will soon head back to Florida, where the Copa America final will be held in Miami Gardens. Argentina awaits the winner between Colombia and Uruguay for the final, with Messi’s family undoubtedly cheering him on once again.
