Manchester City ace Sergio Aguero has jumped to the defence of Barcelona captain Lionel Messi.
Doubts remain in Argentina over Messi’s commitment to the national team.
But Aguero told TyC Sports: “I do not understand those who criticise him in the national team.
“He is the first to suffer and continues to come.”
An international honour with Argentina continues to elude the Barcelona icon after finishing runners-up at the 2014 World Cup, and placing second in back-to-back Copa America’s in 2015 and 2016 – with Messi missing a crucial penalty in the shootout in the latter final.
