Lionel Messi will be seen in the national team jersey again. The world's best striker Leo will be able to return to the field in the first match of the World Cup qualifier against Argentina against Ecuador on October 8 due to the lifting of the ban.

Earlier, he was banned in the last Copa America for corruption against Conmebol. However, after talks with Conmebol chief Alejandro Dominguez, Argentine Football Association chief Claudio Tapia said Messi's ban had expired. As a result, there was no obstacle for Messi to enter the field.

Messi clashed with Chile's Gary Medal in the third place match of the Copa America. The referee then showed Messi a straight red card. And after that punishment on the field, Messi could not control his anger anymore. He accused Conmebol of corruption.

After that incident, Messi was banned for three months and fined মে 50,000. However, with the expiration of the ban, Messi will be able to play from the very beginning of the 2022 World Cup qualifiers. Argentina will play the first two qualifiers against Ecuador on October 6 and Bolivia on October 13.
