Messi: Copa America starts now

CORDOBA, July 12, 2011 (AFP) - The star of the Argentine national team, Lionel Messi, was thrilled with a 3-0 victory against Costa Rica, which qualified his team to the quarterfinals of the Copa America, and estimated that the tournament starts from now.

"From now another Cup begins, more than anyone, we want the best for Argentina," Messi said smiling after the victory in Cordoba.

Messi thanked the support of more than 50 000 spectators who cheered the entire Argentine team: "I want to thank the fans, we missed this affection."

The team directed by Sergio Batista was an offensive flood led by Messi, the man of the match, which gave assists to the second and third goals, and returned to shine as a playmaker.
