Argentina won two Copa America championships, 91 and 93, without Messi. However, due to doping issues, Old Madrid did not participate in both Copa America championships, which is why Old Madrid did not participate. It is obvious that the Copa America at this time is usually held every two years. Until 2007, the Copa America was changed to once every four years. Messi started participating in the Copa America in 2007, which means he was unlucky. When he participated in the Copa America, it happened to be once every four years, while Ronaldo won the Copa America in 97/99.

The number of times Messi participated in the Copa America in 2007, 2011, 2015, 2019, and 2021 was once every four years. Due to the synchronization of the Copa America system with the European Cup in 2021, it was only after two years that the Copa America was held, which is also normal internationally. For example, the Winter Olympics were held in 1992 and then restructured to the Winter Olympics in 1994, and no one said anything.

Due to the 100th anniversary of the establishment of the Copa America in 2016, a Centennial Copa America was held, while the European Championship began in 1960, which is why there is no Centennial European Championship. Strictly speaking, the Centennial Copa America is not a true Copa America, and the participating teams are also different. North American teams have all participated, and the venue is even more in the United States. If the European Cup is not held by European teams, is it still the European Cup?

Looking at Cristiano Ronaldo's participation in the European Championship in 2004/2008/2012/2016/2021, it can be said that he is exactly the same as Messi. Portugal has also hosted the European Championship, while Messi's Argentina has not hosted the Copa America. In Cristiano Ronaldo's European Championship, he won a game in just 90 minutes, and although he won the European Championship, he did not have any personal honors such as Best Player, Best Shooter, and Assist.

What is the value of Messi's Copa America championship this time? It is obvious that the Copa America was originally held in Argentina, but later changed to Brazil. It should be noted that previous Copa America championships held in Brazil were all championships, and it was very difficult for Argentina to win the championship in Brazil. It can be said that no one was optimistic about Argentina before the game, but Argentina played well under Messi's leadership and ultimately defeated Brazil to win the championship. Messi has won all the honors, being the top scorer, player, and assist king, for the first time in football history.
