On Tuesday, the Mayor of Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, Horacio
Rodriguez Larreta unveiled a Lionel Messi Statue as part of it's ‘Don’t
Leave’ campaign to tempt Messi to reconsider his decision after the
Argentina captain called time on his International career following the
heartbreaking Copa America final defeat to Chile.

Messi after he announced his shock retirement and was hoping to change
his mind.
