Argentina captain Lionel Messi has been left deeply disappointed by the cancellation of the Finalissima, which he considered a very important opportunity.
The Inter Miami leader and the Albiceleste's number 10 wanted to play the match against the Spanish National Team as a big and important test before the World Cup, reports ESPN, followed by Gazeta Express.
However, he was not involved in the discussions that led to the cancellation of the match. Argentina were due to face European champions Spain in what was expected to be a huge clash between two continental trophy winners.
The Finalissima was scheduled to take place on March 27 in Qatar, but the uncertain situation in the region and the lack of an agreement on an alternative date or stadium meant that the match was not played.
For Messi, this match would have been an important test before the World Cup, as well as an opportunity to measure Argentina's strength against a top-level opponent in European football. /Express newspaper
