Ahead of the final of the Copa America 2024 in Miami, Lionel Messi spoke about the team's journey so far as he said, “I am calm waiting for the day to come as always. I am much calmer than before after everything we lived through and what we went through.”
The former FC Barcelona superstar added on how he is just enjoying his football at the moment, “I want to enjoy things much more, live each moment to the fullest, not to speed up the times. Just live the moment and when it comes, focus on what the match is going to be like. The last finals I slept well, I had no problems. The truth is that we slept late because we stayed up talking, drinking mate and playing cards. We went to bed late but we slept well.”
