ورزش · Argentina farewellMessi ends Argentina career with a goal and two assists in 3–0 farewellمکتوب ۱۶ مهر ۱۴۰۵ ساعت ۱۴:۳۸ (UTC)تماشامتن پیادهشده0:09Lionel Messi scored once and set up both other goals in his final Argentina match.0:14The 3-0 victory over Benin closes a 21-year national team career for Argentina's0:19captain, an all-time leading scorer, a World Cup winner now aged 39.0:25What does this farewell settle?0:26And which parts of Messi's final record remain unresolved?0:30Argentina marked Messi's departure at Estadio Monumental Antonio V.0:33Liberti in Buenos Aires on Tuesday, October 6th, 2026.0:37His final appearance ended with direct involvement in every goal after Argentina and0:41Benin reached halftime level at 0-0.0:44The local match date is October 6, not October 7th.0:48Several publication dates fall on October 7th in UTC or other time zones.0:53A separate match listing also displays October 7th, but its time zone is not0:58established.0:59Those dates are not interchangeable.1:01The opponent's name is Benin, not the earlier rendering Benin.1:05Nicolas Odamendi broke the deadlock in the 48th minute from a Messi assist.1:09Nico Paz doubled the lead in the 61st, again assisted by Messi.1:13Messi then converted a penalty in the 71st, one goal, two assists, and a 3-0 win.1:18This was a farewell performance, not merely a ceremonial appearance.1:21It is identified as his final Argentina International, rather than only his last1:26home match.1:27His decision to leave international football preceded it.1:30The announcement was reported in August, with several accounts placing it on August1:3331st, 2026.1:35The original dated statement and its exact wording remain unavailable.1:38Messi's senior Argentina debut came against Hungary on August 17th, 2005.1:43That first appearance lasted just 90 seconds.1:46In 2022, he captained Argentina to the World Cup title.1:50The October 6 farewell closes the national team chapter 21 years after that debut.1:54The brief debut and the championship are established milestones, but the full1:58circumstances of those 90 seconds are not.2:01They do not support a reconstruction of how he entered the match or its disciplinary2:05sequence.2:06His Argentina honors also include two Copa America championships.2:10The available title records do not establish the years of those two wins.2:13Messi's farewell message centered on persistence through the national team's worst2:17moments, continuing to fight, giving everything he had, and wanting to remain part2:22of Argentina.2:23Those words belong to his farewell address, not the earlier announcement of his2:26international retirement.2:28Messi's final career totals do not all agree.2:30The most widely repeated tally is 208 appearances and 126 goals.2:35A dated pre-farewell baseline helps explain how those numbers were reached.2:39On August 31st, his totals stood at 207 appearances and 125 goals.2:44One career compilation explicitly excluded the Benin-friendly.2:47Adding the Benin match to 207 appearances produces 208.2:51Adding Messi's penalty to 125 goals produces 126.2:56That arithmetic explains why an earlier total can legitimately be lower than the3:00farewell tally.3:01It does not eliminate contradictions in the final match accounts.3:04One competing final account gives 298 appearances, not 208.3:08Another final match caption gives 125 goals and 208 appearances.3:13even after the penalty.3:14That captioned scoring total cannot be explained simply by the older August3:18baseline.3:19No direct Argentine Football Association statistical ledger or correction was3:23available to resolve either discrepancy, so neither should be silently treated as a3:26typo.3:27The reported 2 out of 8 appearances would extend Argentina's appearance record.3:31The pre-farewell 207 was already identified as the record.3:34Messi remains Argentina's all-time leading scorer despite the unresolved final goal3:38count.3:39A further farewell tally gives 69 international assists, including his two against3:43Benin.3:44An incomplete statistical entry listing 196 appearances and 115 goals has no3:49established cutoff date.3:51It cannot serve as a competing final tally.3:53The uncertainty concerns the exact ledger, not whether Messi contributed a goal and3:57two assists in the farewell victory.3:59Direct national team match records and primary confirmation of the retirement4:03announcement were also unavailable in the check material.4:05Messi and his teammates watched a drone show above the stadium after the match, with4:10lights forming images of him.4:11The tribute was described as using 500 drones.4:14The show itself is corroborated.4:16That exact drone count is not independently confirmed.4:18Supporters gathered for an emotional farewell, but no verified attendance total or4:22detailed program of banners and chants is established.4:25The answer to what ended is narrower than retirement from all professional football,4:29Messi's Argentina international career.4:31He was identified as an inter-Miami player and captain.4:35This farewell establishes neither the end of his club career nor a specific4:38post-farewell playing commitment or duration.مقاله را بخوانیدخط زمانی داستانHeyDexویدیوی کوتاه ↗چه کسی چه گزارش کردنکتههایی که بیش از یک رسانه گزارش کردMessi’s
