Lionel Messi's status is in doubt for Argentina's upcoming Copa America game against Peru in Miami on Saturday due to a right leg injury sustained during a physical match against Chile. Messi, who has been undergoing treatment, expressed that the injury is bothering him. Argentina's coach, Lionel Scaloni, has been suspended for one game by CONMEBOL's disciplinary committee for the team's late return to the pitch during the match against Chile. Argentina has already qualified for the Copa America quarterfinals following a late goal by Lautaro Martinez in the 88th minute against Chile. Multiple reports suggest Messi will be rested for the sold-out Peru game at Hard Rock Stadium to ensure his readiness for the quarterfinals on July 4.
