Lionel Messi lost his third major title final with Argentina in three successive years. They lost to Germany in the FIFA World Cup 2014, to Chile in the Copa America 2015 final and this year again in the Copa America 2016 final.
It is still to be seen if if Messi can ever get that estranged feather in his cap by winning a title for his country. Meanwhile, here are some of the tweets from Messi fans lending out their love and support for the striker.
What a game. Really feel for Messi. Congrats to Chile. Remarkable tourney from them again this year. #CopaAmericaCentenario

To be fair to Messi, everyone is an ugly crier. Last time I cried, I was snot-nosed and dry-heaving in the car till I passed out
