Argentina is famous for excellent beef, tantalizing tango, and producing some of the most famous football players in history. Lionel Messi, perhaps one of the best footballers of our generation, has attained such a high level of respect across the world that the administration of Buenos Aires, Argentina's capital city, has decided to honor the striker by unveiling a statue which immortalizes the living legend in bronze.
Superstar Lionel Messi and his national team return home after winning their first trophy as Angel Di Maria's goal gave Argentina a 1-0 win over hosts Brazil in the Copa America final. The victory at Rio de Janeiro's Maracana stadium ended Argentina's 28-year wait for a major trophy, and also ended Brazil's unbeaten home record that stretched back more than 2,500 days. IMAGES
