Watch Argentina Vs. Paraguay Copa America Live Stream: Start Time, Preview, Must-Win For Messi’s Title Quest
Lionel Messi may be the greatest player in the world, but he has never won a trophy with his national team, Argentina. As a result, as Marca.com notes, Messi remains in the shadow of his countryman Diego Maradona, who led his country to the 1986 FIFA World Cup championship and won Copa America titles in 1991 and 1993. Now, Messi, 31, may be on his last chance to take a major international title, but his quest got off to a disastrous start on Saturday when Colombia shocked by opening the 2019 tournament with a 2-0 win against Argentina. With Colombia defeating Qatar earlier on Wednesday, Messi and Argentina now face a must-win situation when they face neighboring Paraguay in a match that will live stream from Belo Horizonte.
