Argentina Superstar and Captain, Lionel Messi has
reportedly declared his intentions not to retire from International football
without winning the World Cup.
Messi was runners-up at the 2014 FIFA World Cup in
Brazil and reached the quarter-finals at the two previous tournaments.
“I’ve always had the dream of watching me raise the
World Cup. And then seeing the emotion that goes with it. So we cannot give up
on that dream.
“I have won all the most important tournaments but I
am ambitious to the end. I would not like to retire from active football
without being a world champion with my country,” Messi said.
Argentina needs to beat the Super Eagles of Nigeria
in their final Group D match in St. Petersburg on Tuesday to keep alive their
hopes of reaching the knockout stage.
