(VIDEO) This is how they received Lionel Messi in Bolivia

Lionel Messi and the Argentina National Team are already in La Paz to face Bolivia on the second day of the Conmebol qualifiers towards the 2026 World Cup. Lionel Messi unleashes madness in Bolivia and the fans received the player in a great way. In fact, they made a huge line and ran at the airport, just to see the player from afar.

Messi has positioned himself as one of the most important players of the moment and is experiencing great news at Inter Miami. Now, with the Argentine National Team, he has just scored a great goal that earned the team victory on the first date against Ecuador. However, Lionel would have left with discomfort, so he might not start in this match against Bolivia.

The warm reception of Messi by the fans has become a very gratifying custom, especially after what he experienced at PSG, where the Parisian team's own ultras whistled and booed him in the Parc des Princes. Just after playing his last game in France, Messi received a great dose of affection on the National Team's tour of Asia, and then the same thing happened in every game he had to face in the United States.

Lionel Scaloni does not guarantee the presence of Messi as a starter

Although the captain traveled to La Paz, Lionel Scaloni himself confirmed in a press conference that they have yet to decide whether or not to use him for the clash on September 12. We will have to see how he responds to his fatigue in training, taking into account the height factor.
