Lionel Messi has cemented his status as the most decorated player in football history by winning the Copa America for the second consecutive time.
With the triumph in Copa America, Messi has won the 45th trophy of his career. This achievement surpasses his previous record of 44 titles.
The trophy cabinet of the Argentine icon includes many trophies, including a World Cup, Champions League, and numerous league, cup, and super cup titles from his time at Barcelona and Paris.
However, there is one trophy that Messi, despite participating in the competition, has never managed to win, and that is the Coupe de France.
Messi’s quest for this title ended in disappointment when PSG was eliminated from the competition in the round of 16 after a penalty shootout loss to Nice in 2022.
Nevertheless, it is clear that Messi’s legacy is not defined by this single missing piece, but by his extraordinary achievements on the world stage.
