Messi out of Argentina friendlies with hamstring injury, confirms AFA
Quick Glance: Lionel Messi's Absence from Argentina Friendlies Due to Injury
  • Inter Miami forward Lionel Messi will miss Argentina's upcoming international friendlies against El Salvador and Costa Rica in the United States due to a hamstring injury.

  • Following his substitution in the 51st minute of Miami's victory over Nashville in the CONCACAF Champions Cup on Thursday, Manager Tata Martino cited a physical issue with Messi's right leg as the reason.

  • As a result, Messi was unable to participate in Miami's match against D.C. United on Saturday, and the Argentina Football Association (AFA) has officially stated that he will be absent from the squad for the March friendlies.

  • Argentina's schedule includes a match against El Salvador at the Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia on March 23, and a subsequent game against Costa Rica at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum four days later. Initially, the plan was for the world champions to hold their March friendlies in China, but this arrangement was canceled.

Quick Glance: Bitcoin price surges: Reasons behind the cryptocurrency's resurgence
  • Bitcoin has rebounded after a previous downturn, with a supply-demand imbalance counteracting the impact of interest rates.

  • Currently, Bitcoin is experiencing a sustained recovery to levels last seen during low interest rates and high art prices.

  • In February, the cryptocurrency market's total value reached $2 trillion for the first time since April 2022, amidst the potential for prolonged higher interest rates.

  • The increasing demand for Bitcoin ETF approvals and the upcoming Bitcoin halving event are contributing to the current surge in demand.
