Chile vs Argentina: Why is Lionel Messi not available for the Argentina vs Chile clash

Seven-time Ballon d'Or winner Lionel Messi had recently contracted COVID and thus has been given a break by the manager to fully recover and get back to his prime. 

Speaking about the decision to rest Messi, Lionel Scaloni, the national team manager said, “Clearly we would love to have Messi here with us. I spoke to him and he told me that COVID hit him hard. It is key for him to get well, and that is why I decided that the best option was for him to stay at his club.”
