Lionel Scaloni reveals hard personal moment: “I want to go, I am not here to think about the World Cup”

Lionel Scaloni was not calm after the end of the second triple round of Qualifying, despite the fact that the Argentine team remains undefeated and firmly on the road to Qatar 2022. “I’m not like to think about the World Cup”, Said the coach of the ‘Albiceleste’, surprising locals and strangers.

After beating the Peruvian team last Thursday, the coach appeared before the press and, among other things, stated that he is not interested in the next World Cup.

“The first thing I want to do is go home. I haven’t seen my family for a long time. I’m not going through a good family situation to be thinking about the World Cup”, He expressed when asked if he already has a team in mind to seek the title in Qatar 2022.

“I want to go, these months were very hard, I don’t want to know anything else. They were very difficult moments for me and my family and I am not able to think about the World Cup. I am not interested at all”He added to everyone’s surprise.

Before the unexpected words he spoke, Lionel Scaloni he had analyzed the adjusted victory against Peru. The strategist assured that after 1-0 the ‘Albiceleste’ did not settle for that minimal advantage.

“I do not think that Argentina has been satisfied with the result. If it weren’t for the penalty play, in the second half we were practically not kicked on target. Peru plays well, the Qualifiers are difficult. They made their game, we knew what it was going to be, “he stressed.

If Argentina, and Messi, above all, did not shine, it is, according to Scaloni, because fatigue took its toll. “Today (yesterday) the third game was noticed a little in so few days and we took it forward. We won in the end, which was what we wanted to be closer to qualifying ”, said the coach.
