Argentina’s great number 10, Lionel Messi, and teammates Angel Di Maria and Rodrigo De Paul recently posed for the forthcoming Copa América 2024. The La Albiceleste players appeared to be in good spirits as they posed in Argentina’s kit for the renowned competition in the United States.
The photos have gone viral on social media, with Lionel Messi leading the way, holding the tournament’s official matchball in one of them. While Leo’s other photo shows the seasoned footballer with his hands crossed on his chest. The frame also brilliantly highlights Messi’s tattoo on his left hand.
The other item from Argentina’s Copa America 2024 shoot is a short video featuring Lionel Messi and Angel Di Maria. The couple, who had played together at both club and international levels, stood with their backs to each other. As they shared a lighthearted moment, cameras ensured that a good number of photos were taken from that stance.
Rodrigo De Paul, a midfielder for La Albiceleste, was seen kissing a little replica of the Copa America trophy in Argentina Kit as part of the tournament’s photo session. Lionel Scaloni’s team will face Canada in the opening game of the 48th Copa America at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Argentina is placed in Group A alongside teams such as Canada, Peru, and Chile.
