While the fallout from the false news about Jorge Messi's death continues, the captain of the Argentine National Team has once again been active on Instagram
The false news about the death of Jorge Messi generated a strong shock in recent hours and sparked an intense debate about the circulation of unverified information. Amid this media uproar, Lionel Messi decided to stay out of the controversy and reappeared on his social media with a post focused exclusively on football.
The Argentine star shared a series of photographs from one of the last training sessions of the Argentine National Team, showing part of their preparation for upcoming international commitments. As he usually does, he chose not to reference the controversy and let the images speak for themselves.
The post quickly accumulated millions of "likes" and thousands of comments from followers around the world, who celebrated seeing him focused on the field again.

In the images shared by the Argentine captain, he can be seen performing various exercises alongside his teammates. In one of the photographs, he is seen dribbling the ball during a tactical practice in front of one of the traditional dummies used in training.
Another of the snapshots particularly caught the attention of his followers: Messi is seen walking with a mate in hand as he heads to one of the training sessions, an image that reflects one of the most ingrained customs of Argentine footballers.
The sequence is completed with a photograph in the middle of a reduced exercise, where he is observed competing for the ball alongside other members of the national team.

The post comes at a crucial moment for the team led by Lionel Scaloni, which continues to fine-tune details ahead of their next match against Austria, scheduled for next Monday, June 22 at 2 PM (Argentina time).
After this crucial date, the team will face Jordan on Saturday, June 27 at 11 PM (Argentina time). This will be the final decisive match of Group J, which the country leads.
According to Yanina Latorre on SQP (América Tv), the erroneous message that Florencia Peña spread via streaming had enraged not only the Messi family but all the players of the national team and their families, whom Chiqui Tapia and Scaloni have strictly prohibited from discussing this topic with the press.
