Lionel Messi reverses decision to quit Argentina team

Argentine player had retired following his team's defeat to
Chile in the Copa America final earlier this year.
Star striker Lionel Messi will return to play for the Argentine
national football team for the "love" of his country, reversing
his decision in June to retire from international football.
The Barcelona forward had previously said he would not play for
Argentina again following the team's loss to Chile in the final
of the Copa America in the US.
However, in a statement on Friday, Messi explained that he
wanted to continue representing his country as he preferred "to
help from within".
"I consider there to be a lot of problems in Argentine football
and it's not my intention to create another one," the
29-year-old said.
"There are a lot of issues that need to be resolved in Argentine
football but I prefer to help from within and not to criticise
from the outside. A lot of things went through my mind on the
night of the final and I gave serious thought to quitting but my
love for my country and this shirt is too great."
The five-time World Player of the Year is now expected to be
named in new coach Edgardo Bauza's squad to face Uruguay and
Venezuela for the 2018 World Cup qualifiers to be held in the
first week of September.
'Gift from God'
In addition to the defeat on penalties to Chile, Messi has lost
three other major finals with Argentina, two in the past two
years including the 2014 World Cup final to Germany in Brazil.
Earlier, Argentina's President Mauricio Macri had called on
Messi to continue playing for the national side.
"It is a gift from God to have the best player in the world in a
footballing country like ours," Macri had said in June.
"Lionel Messi is the greatest thing we have in Argentina and we
must take care of him."
