The Argentina captain was substituted midway through the second half at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida.
Lionel Messi was withdrawn during Argentina’s Copa America final against Colombia, sparking real concern about the 37-year-old’s injury status.
The Argentina captain went down in the first half after getting his leg tangled with Santiago Arias while trying to put in a cross. He received treatment on his right leg but was able to hobble on until the halftime break and then received additional attention.
He made it twenty minutes into the second half before falling to the ground after an innocuous challenge on the halfway line. He was seen with ice on his right ankle on the bench after being substituted, tears rolling down his face.

you wrote well I appreciate it but you are showing your hypocrisy in this long post as well. It's a simple we don't use provocative words for a person if we really respect a person. You are saying u respect CR7 but your post started with a word like " PENDU " which some cheap shitheads use. And it's true liking someone is some personal choice for millions of people MESSI is GOAT and for millions as well CR7 is GOAT. Neither of the group can never ever defeat the other group to change their perceptions with any amount of Logic, Abuse or anything. That is ok. But people from neither side has the right to talk shit about any of those Greats. So you seems to me a reasonable person so Why stoop to a level of using shit words for CR7 whom you are also saying I respect and all.
