Lionel Messi, who recently celebrated his 37th birthday, might be absent from Argentina's upcoming Copa America match against Peru due to a thigh injury. The team has already secured a spot in the next round after winning their first two games.
During Argentina's narrow 1-0 win over Chile in the tournament hosted by the United States, Messi needed short-term medical attention for his thigh. However, he managed to play the entire game, nearly scoring with a long-range effort that hit the post and being instrumental in Argentina's offensive plays.
