I love the versatility of scaloni's Argentina. they can play absolute "thug" haram football if opponents wanna to get dirty, but they're also deeply well-versed in beautiful champagne football
they're a complete package
🚨 Lionel Scaloni criticizes European media for “twisting” his comments about Messi’s role:
"The other day I said that I discuss everything regarding Messi with him and a foreign outlet twisted my words and reported that I don’t make any decisions without asking him first.
"They asked Portugal’s coach about it and, since he didn’t know the context, he said they work differently. But I’m sure he works the same way I do. He talks with Ronaldo about his situation, and then the coach picks the team.
"I don’t really care, but I felt it was important to clarify it for Leo’s sake. I didn’t like it. It was a non-Argentine outlet, and it bothered me. I hope it was just a misunderstanding. If they could take the article down, they’d be doing me a huge favor… and especially Leo.
"In all the years I’ve been here, Messi has never said a single word to me about the team. With him, about him, I discuss everything, but I’ll never get tired of repeating that he has never told me who should play or anything about the team. I don’t even need to clarify it, but it bothered me and I wanted to say it.”
4 years ago Argentina were playing like this in the 104th minute of a World Cup final when the score was tied, now tell me that cowardly football isn’t killing this sport
