Details: The iconic forward scored the first goal in the 39th minute with a quick assist from Julián Álvarez, giving Argentina the lead. In the second half, Argentina took control of the match. Lautaro Martínez scored the second goal, and just four minutes later, Messi netted his second of the night.
Ultimately, Messi left the field with two goals in what could be his last official appearance in Argentina. The national team secured a 3-0 win, having already qualified for the World Cup.
Reminder: In 2022, Argentina won the World Cup by defeating France in the final. The French Football Federation was keen for a rematch.
