Argentinian media are reporting that the likes of Sergio Aguero, Angel Di Maria and others are set to retire from international football like Lionel Messi.
Lionel Messi has already announced his intention to retire from international football following the defeat saying: “I feel a great sadness right now that this is happening again. I missed my penalty, which was super important. That’s it.
“The national team is over for me. That’s four finals (lost), it’s not for me.
“It’s a made decision, I think.”
