Messi became the record appearance maker in the 108-year history of the Copa America, overtaking Chile great Sergio Livingstone by featuring in his 35th match at the tournament. While he could not get on the scoresheet, Messi was as influential as ever. He had a game-leading six shots, three on target, creating five chances and leading the match in touches in the opponent's box and big chances.
His pass that released Julian Alvarez to open the scoring was key, and despite some missed opportunities, his overall impact and contribution to Argentina's victory were undeniable.
