Lionel Messi was reduced to tears after suffering what appeared to be an injury and exiting around the 64th minute of Sunday’s Copa America final. 

The Argentinian superstar appeared to plant his foot the wrong way before tumbling to the ground as he chased a ball against a Colombian player. 

Messi remained down on the ground and was attended to by team trainers before leaving the field, for what could be his final Copa America game.

Moments later while sitting on the bench, Messi was seen in tears and covering his face after he was subbed out of the game for Nicolás González. 

The game was scoreless at the time of the injury.
