Argentina needs Messi: The stats shows it all

When Messi announced his retirement, just hour after Copa America heartbreaking loss back in June, Argentinian came out on the street to show their love towards the best football player and were trying hard to made Messi revert his decision.. Everyone in Argentina including the president himself clamoured hard for his return..

President says," He is a pearl of Argentina, we don't want his talent to get wasted, we love him, we want him back"... 

When you look at the CONMEBOL record with or without Messi, the madness over him won't be surprising..


In the recent qualifying match against Venezuela, Argentina sweats off to pull a 2-2 draw.. Argentina were down two goal before scoring two to manage a draw.. In five matches without Messi, La albiceleste managed to win just one, earning just 6 points out of possible 15. 

On the other hand, Messi played three matches in CONMEBOL and took his side to victory in all three. 

Argentina currently sits third in CONMEBOL point table behind leader Uruguay and Brazil.. Messi was ruled out against Venezuela because of injury. He flew back to Barcelona for his treatment where medical staff confirms his injury but set no time table for his returnment. 

Meanwhile, Messi returns back to training with Barcelona team.. he did first session and some specific exercise.

I hope he gets well to play every match..
