Angel Di Maria will retire from the national team of Argentina after the final of the 2024 Copa America being held in the United States.
Di Maria's last game for La Albiceleste will be against Colombia, as Lionel Scaloni's side are striving to secure back-to-back continental titles.
When Did Di Maria Make His Debut With Argentina?
Angel Di Maria has given his all for Argentina and his impact is visible to everyone since he made his debut for the country on September 6, 2008, in a 1-1 draw with Paraguay, in a qualification encounter for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.

The 36-year-old has delivered clutch performances time and time again for Argentina, scoring decisive goals that have either aided their course to victory or saved them during precarious situations.
Di Maria scored the crucial goal for La Albiceleste during the 2021 Copa America, helping Lionel Scaloni's side defeat Brazil 1-0 in the final.
Angel Di Maria also scored against France during the 2022 FIFA World Cup final, netting the second goal in their 3-3 draw with Didier Deschamps' side.
He also won the penalty for Lionel Scaloni's side to get the opener against Les Bleus, after Ousmane Dembele was deemed to have fouled Di Maria in the box.

Messi will always cherish the combination he had with the former Real Madrid man, as it yielded the right dividend for Argentina.
