“The year is a dream: we won the Copa América, we are undefeated and in the World Cup. We qualified for the World Cup four dates in advance and a game without playing, I don’t like to enlarge things but it is to be proud of the team. We achieved this with a lot for being played in a very tough qualifier. I know that difficult times will come and we will have to be prepared “, stressed the coach.
Argentina achieved the passage to the World Cup five dates in advance for the first time in its history since this system has been played in the last six South American Qualifiers.
“We had a difficult game, Brazil came to try not to play and at times they succeeded. The fundamental thing is that we adapt to the circumstances, it was a typical match between Argentina and Brazil. In the second half we were better. The balance is positive. the double date, we got four points against Uruguay and Brazil. These games serve to mature and to take contact with high-level rivals “.
Personally Lionel Scaloni remarked that “I have my two old internees. Unfortunately, a moment that could be of total happiness for me is not because they come first.”
