Messi leads Argentina to the semi-final against Colombia

09:07: With two assists and a goal, Lionel Messi helped Argentina’s national football team reach the Copa America semi-finals. Argentina beat Ecuador 3-0. It didn’t come down to a fight with his good friend Luis Suarez. The next opponent was Colombia, which beat Uruguay on penalties.

Messi, Rodrigo de Paul and Lottaro Martinez made goals shortly before half-time as his contract expired as his future at FC Barcelona was uncertain. That second goal came in the 84th minute and effectively ended the game. Messi scored with a free kick in extra time. Not long ago, Ecuador defender Piero Hinkopic was shown a red card.

Messi has not yet added Copa America to his roster. He lost three times to Argentina in the final: Venezuela in 2007, Chile in 2015 and the United States in 2016.

Argentina will face Colombia in Brasilia on Tuesday to advance to the final. In the Brazilian capital, the match between the Colombians and Uruguay ended 0-0. Colombia won 4-2 on penalties.

In the other semi-final Brazil and Peru will face each other.
