心灰意冷!梅西宣佈退出阿根廷國家隊!

"It's not meant for me. For me the national team is over. I've done all I can, it hurts not to be a champion," Lionel Messi, the 29-year-old said after defeat by Chile at the Copa America.

在美洲盃阿根廷輸給智利的比賽之後，29歲的里奧內爾·梅西說道：“我也不想這樣。但我的國家隊生涯到頭了。我做了所有我能夠做的事，不能拿冠軍真的很讓人傷心。”

With Barcelona, Messi has won eight La Liga titles and four Champions Leagues. But his only major international honour is 2008 Olympic gold.

在巴塞羅那俱樂部，梅西共贏得了8次西甲冠軍、4次歐冠冠軍。但是他只有一項大型國際賽事的冠軍頭銜，那就是2008年奧運會金牌。

Argentina were beaten 1-0 in the 2014 World Cup final by Germany before two Copa America final defeats by Chile on penalties. Messi was also on the losing side against Brazil in the 2007 Copa America final.

2014年世界盃決賽阿根廷被德國隊1-0擊敗，此後阿根廷國家隊又兩次在美洲盃賽場上被智利隊以點球擊敗。在2007年美洲盃決賽對陣巴西的時候，梅西所在的阿根廷國家隊也是輸球的一方。

"It's been four finals, I tried. It was the thing I wanted the most, but I couldn't get it, so I think it's over," he added.

梅西補充說道：“已經有四次決賽都是這樣了，我盡力了。冠軍是我最渴望的東西，但是我卻不能得到，所以我認爲一切該結束了。”

"I think this is best for everyone. First of all for me, and then for everyone. I think there's a lot of people who want this, who obviously are not satisfied, as we are not satisfied reaching a final and not winning it. It's very hard, but the decision is taken. Now I will not try more and there will be no going back."

“我認爲這對所有人來說都是最好的。首先對我來說是一件好事，然後對其他所有人都是一件好事。我認爲很多人都希望看到我離開國家隊，很明顯這些人很不滿，就像我們進入決賽卻沒有贏得冠軍那樣不滿。做出這個決定很難，但我還是下定了決心。現在我不會再做更多的嘗試了，我也不會再選擇歸隊了。”

Messi had scored five times at the tournament, including a superb free-kick in the semi-final against hosts the USA to become his country's record scorer with 55 goals.

梅西在本次美洲盃比賽中共打入了5粒進球，包括在半決賽中對陣東道主美國隊時的那一記非常漂亮的任意球，他也因此以打入55個進球的成績成爲阿根廷國家隊的最佳射手。

Argentina and Manchester United goalkeeper Sergio Romero said he hoped Messi would "reflect" on his decision and reconsider, adding: "I think he spoke while he was heated, because a beautiful opportunity escaped us. I can't imagine a national team without Messi."

阿根廷及曼聯門將塞爾吉奧·羅梅羅表示，他希望梅西能夠在他的決定上“慎重”、並重新考慮一下，他說道：“我認爲他是在失去理智的情況下說出這番話的，因爲如果他退出國家隊的話，我們就失去了最棒的機會。我難以想象沒有梅西的國家隊會是什麼樣子。”

Manchester City forward Sergio Aguero described the mood in the Argentina dressing room as "the worst I've ever been in", and was quoted by South American media as saying: "There are several players who are evaluating not continuing with the national team."

曼城前鋒阿奎羅將阿根廷隊更衣室的氣氛描述爲“我待過的最糟糕的”，南美媒體引述他的話報道稱：“有幾個球員根本沒資格繼續留在國家隊裏。”

Messi made his debut for Argentina in 2005, going on to make 113 appearances. For Barca he has scored 453 times in 531 games, including a La Liga record 312 goals. He has won the Ballon d'Or award for the world's best player five times.

梅西於2005年首次代表阿根廷隊亮相，自那以後共出場113次。在巴塞羅那，梅西共參加了531場比賽，進球453次，他還在西甲聯賽中保持着312粒進球的記錄。梅西還曾五次獲得世界足球先生金球獎的殊榮。
