Lionel Messi unlikely to play for Argentina for remaining year: Reports

According to local reports in Argentina, Lionel Messi will miss Argentina's next four friendly matches and remains doubtful to return for the Copa America next year.

After a disappointing World Cup, the troubles appears to be piling up on Argentina after reports came out that skipper Lionel Messi will miss the next four friendly matches. The Argentinian daily Clarin on Tuesday reported that the Barcelona forward will not appear to play in Argentina’s next game against Guatemala on September 7 and against Colombia in New York on September 11.

The report adds that he will also miss the next two friendlies which are scheduled to take place later this year, against yet-to-be-named opponents. It further says that Messi’s exclusion also raises questions on his future at the club as he has not yet made it clear when he would be making a return to the international team.

“Messi will not return this year and there are doubts about his future,” the report in Clarin said.

A team spokesperson, remained unclear on the situation, in an interview to news agency AFP. “It is the coach who will say when the time comes, what the situation is concerning Messi,” the spokesperson was quoted as saying.

Messi, 31, has been rumoured to announce international retirment ever since Argentina crashed out of the World Cup in Round of 16, after losing 4-2 against eventual Champions, France. After the forgettable tournament, coach Jorge Sampaoli left his role and manager Lionel Scaloni was named to take up the temporary role.

Messi had shocked the world after he announced retirement from international football two years ago, following Argentina’s Copa America final loss to Chile in the penalty shootouts. But the footballer changed his mind two months later.

The 5-time Ballon d’Or Winner has not yet won an international trophy, and will get a chance to do so next year in the 2019 Copa America tournament. But amid the recent reports, it remains unclear whether the star forward will return to the side for the tournament.

Meanwhile, former Argentina international Carlos Tevez, who plays for Boca Juniors, said that Messi should be allowed to make up his own mind on his future. “I think we should all leave him to make his own mind and make the decision that will make him happy. The best decision both for him and his family,” he said. “Surely if he feels happy and decides to re-join the national team is because he has the support of his family and he wants to do it. If this isn’t the case, then it would be useless for him to stay and do something he has no motivation for,” Tevez added.

Formatting and Why It Is Important

When we talk about format in relation to computer documents, we usually mean one of two things. If asked what format a particular document is in; the answer will depend on the program it has been made in, so Word, Note, Adobe .pdf and so on.

When we talk about the formatting of a document, we are referring to the page arrangement of the various elements within the document.

Here's what I do if one of my friends sends me a link to a badly formatted article that they may or may not have written. I will skim the first 5 lines and then skim the article for a point of interest, read that line or lines and then reply to my friend quoting the point of interest, making it seem as if I had read it.
