Lionel Messi was named in the starting lineup for Argentina's Copa América quarterfinal against Ecuador at NRG Stadium in Houston on Thursday after missing their final group game with a right leg injury.
Messi sustained the injury in their Group A win over Chile -- Argentina's second match of the tournament. His status was described as "day to day" before returning to training earlier this week, with head coach Lionel Scaloni saying on Wednesday that whether or not Messi played depended on how he trained the night before the match.
