Copa America Centenario 2016 Argentina National Team Roster
Argentina vs. Chile Copa America 2016 is the rematch between the two sides that contested the final last summer. That game of course ended with Lionel Messi holding his head as he watched his team mates fumble penalties, handing Chile its first ever tournament win of all time.
For Argentina that match was yet another disappointment as the team lost the year before against Germany in the World Cup final.
These players have all contested tremendous amounts of games throughout the years without much rest and this opening game promises to be a rough one from the outset. Messi has already been struggling with injury and this could be the tournament that figuratively breaks his back. His overall play for Barcelona took a hit this year, signaling the start of his decline.
