I was able to add minutes which is important after such a long time off,\" said Messi, who missed four games for Inter Miami before returning to play 35 minutes in a 1-0 loss to Cincinnati last Saturday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\"I was unable to play for a long time so it was difficult. But I will take a lot of positives out of tonight. I want to train as much as possible to continue feeling this way.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Thursday's result means Argentina now have three wins from as many games this qualifying campaign.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The reigning world champions will now turn their focus to their next qualifier against Peru in Lima on Tuesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n",
