Angel Di Maria admitted he is contemplating his immediate playing future following Rosario Central's heartbreaking Copa Libertadores elimination against Brazilian giants Corinthians. The 38-year-old winger returned to his boyhood club with ambitions of continental glory, but the latest setback has left him questioning the next chapter of his career.

What happened?

The former Argentina talisman Angel Di Maria quickly reached out to his compatriots to offer comfort after Lionel Scaloni's men suffered a painful extra-time defeat. Writing on social media, the legendary winger fiercely defended the squad's incredible legacy and insisted that a single match would never diminish their standing as icons of the nation.

Argentine football has been shaken by a major disciplinary ruling after Estudiantes de La Plata refused to perform a guard of honour for Angel Di Maria’s Rosario Central. The Argentine Football Association (AFA) responded with sweeping sanctions, including a six-month suspension for club president Juan Sebastian Veron and bans for all 11 players involved, intensifying tensions around a controversial title awarded to Rosario.
