Gerardo Martino was happy with Messi's performance as the Argentina captain set up three goals for his teammates in the Copa America semi-final despite failing to score himself.
"If Messi gives passes that end up in goals then there is no problem," Martino told reporters.
"What is more important is that he responds to what the game demands. He doesn't look worried to me. He is happy and he has no problems.
"He doesn't need to be the team's goalscorer to be happy."
Argentina only scored four times in four games before thrashing Paraguay 6-1 in the semi-final. However, Martino insisted the final against Chile will be much trickier.
"We are very happy because these guys are in another final of an important tournament in the space of less than a year," he added.
"It's not the World Cup, but it's very important. We will have to work hard to win the game against Chile in the final."
"We are up against a Chile team that are playing well. They have good players and have been in a process for three years. Some ideas don't change and Chile won't change against us.
"They will press us when they can and attack us just like they do against other teams."
