He left ended Lionel Messi's dreams, now karma comes to him and he fails in Europe

Before Lionel Messi achieved glory with the Argentine national team, he came close to winning the Copa América on three occasions. In 2007, 2015 and 2016 he almost got his first absolute title with the Albiceleste. However, he lost once against Brazil and twice against Chile.

Now, an Araucanian who deprived Leo of raising the long-awaited trophy, karma hit him and he fails in Europe. This is striker Alexis Sánchez. The former FC Barcelona player, who coincided with Leo in Spanish football, was key for the 'Red' to take away from the 'Flea' the possibility of winning the Copa América on two occasions.
