Lionel Messi vowed to extend his international career after yet another bid to win a major title with Argentina ended in failure at the Copa America on Tuesday.
The 32-year-old Barcelona star, who infamously quit international football after Argentina's defeat in the 2016 Copa America Centenario final, said he had no plans to hang up his boots after a 2-0 semi-final loss to Brazil.
"If I can still help in any way, I will continue to do so. I feel really good in this group," said the five-time Ballon d'Or winner.
"This is a good, talented generation who showed that they love the national team," he added.
"They have a future and great foundations, they just need to be given time."
"It doesn't matter because they're going to the final but if we're aware of what we did today then there's only positives."
He said the defeat was "unfair" claiming that "no other team has created as many goalscoring chances against Brazil as we did."
"I don't think he was qualified for a match of this level."
