Messi Leads Argentina to World Cup
Description
Messi, at 38, leads Argentina into the 2026 World Cup as their all-time leading scorer and most capped player, poised to chase his sixth World Cup and a historic third title. His Inter Miami move has electrified MLS, where he’s already won three major trophies and racked up 90 goals and 51 assists in 104 games — including back-to-back Landon Donovan MVPs. Argentina, the reigning Copa América champs and 2022 World Cup winners, are the tournament favorites after dominating South American qualifiers by nine points. They open Group J against Algeria in Kansas City on June 16, aiming to defend their crown with a squad that includes fellow MLS star Rodrigo De Paul.
