Why did Messi quit the Argentine national team?

Messi withdrew from the Argentine national team because of the pressure of losing streak, and playing in the national team became an annoyance, which was full of contradictions with the Argentine Football Association.

1、? The pressure of continuous failure.

This is not the first time Messi has fallen to the finals. In the 2007 America's Cup final, the 20 14 World Cup final and the 20 15 America's Cup final, Argentina led by Messi were all close to the championship.

Continuous defeats will make a person with strong psychology collapse, not to mention that Argentina has not won a major championship for 23 years since 1993, and Messi had to win this trophy carefully. Although he was injured before the Copa America, he quickly caught up with the knockout stage and scored a hat trick. It can be said that Messi has paid a lot for this champion.

However, Messi scored a penalty at the crucial moment. After the kick, Messi paced or curled up on the sidelines and accepted the trial of fate. More ironically, Argentina beat Chile 2-/kloc-0-without Messi's group match.

2、? Playing for the national team has become an annoyance.

Messi's performance in the national team is perfect, but he can't bring a trophy to Argentina. Messi has to bear all the pressure and be criticized by everyone, and no matter how good he is, all the comments will return to that he has never brought a trophy to the national team.

So for Messi, playing for the national team can't bring him the joy of playing as a child.

3、? There are many contradictions with the Argentine Football Association.

The Argentine Football Association must regret it now. Messi complained about the unprofessionalism of the Argentine Football Association more than once. Just two days before the final, the Argentine Football Association asked the whole national team to wait in the cabin without a good rest place after the flight was delayed. Messi also complained on Twitter.

Just when Argentina first arrived in the United States, five couples were getting married in their hotel, which caused many players not to have a good rest. The original youth team sparring could not be put in place, and the day before the final, the Argentine head coach was exposed that he had not paid his salary for a long time.

The Argentine Football Association is currently in a leaderless state, and the poor performance of the Argentine Football Association has also been warned by FIFA, which claims to take over the Argentine Football Association. So it is no wonder that other Argentine players, such as Mascherano, Higuain and Aguero, also want to quit the national team.
