World Cup 2018 is last chance at glory with Argentina for Messi

Barcelona star Lionel Messi has stated that the upcoming World Cup is his last chance to finally emerge victory. Despite his domestic titles with Barcelona, his national team career has not consisted of the same glory. Messi and Argentina have suffered heartbreak in three consecutive major international finals: the 2014 World Cup and the 2015 and 2016 editions of the Copa America. "I cried many times because of games like these, for lost finals, for what they mean and for not being able to achieve the dream of a country," Messi told Argentine television program "La Cornisa." "They [the three finals] were tough blows," Messi continued. "It seems like having reached three finals doesn't help us at all." "We depend on the results, unfortunately," Messi said. "We feel that if we are not champions ... we will not have another." The five-time Ballon d'Or winner turns 31 in June which is a key factor for his future international career.
