Lionel Messi has said he will not retire from international football after scoring twice as Argentina lifted the 2022 World Cup in a thrilling penalty shootout victory over France on Sunday (early yesterday morning, Fiji time).
Messi scored the opener from the penalty spot at the Lusail Stadium in Doha, Qatar, before striking again in extra time when the ball fell to him in the 6-yard box and he prodded home.
