CONMEBOL selects both Messi and Neymar as the best players of Copa America 2021

Lionel Messi has been at his very best as he led Argentina to the finals of Copa America. His counterpart Neymar was equally instrumental in Brazil’s run to the final. However, it was Messi who ended his international trophy drought as Argentina beat Brazil by Di Maria’s solitary goal.

But the CONMEBOL committee struggled to pick a winner when it came to the Messi vs Neymar battle for the MVP award. They have decided to give the award jointly to Messi and Neymar.

CONMEBOL said in a statement: “It is not possible to choose only one player, because this competition has two best players,”

“They demonstrated in each match their different qualities that make them players of integrity, with technical and tactical quality, for their intelligence with and without the ball, and their decision making, which is always decisive.”

“Both are finalists with their national teams, they have performed at a high level, being key players in the goalscoring charts in this tournament.”

In, they are leaders in assists – the Argentine has five and the Brazilian has provided three – which demonstrates how decisive they have been on the pitch during this CONMEBOLCopa America 2021.”

This is the first time that this award has been split between two players. Messi and Neymar are truly the best South American players of their generations.
