After the press conference given by Lionel Messi, it was the turn of coach Lionel Scaloni, who spoke in the preview of the debut of the Argentine National Team in the Qatar 2022 World Cup, this Tuesday, from 7.00, against Saudi Arabia.
Although he did not give the names, the coach assured that he has already defined the team for the World Cup debut: “The team is determined, I told them today. That’s a bit what you (the journalists) have been saying. Everyone already knows that. It’s not going to change from there, there’s not going to be a change of scheme. You will see it tomorrow.” Here are the most outstanding phrases of Scaloni.The candidates to win the World Cup
“The big favourites don’t win the World Cups normally. There are great teams, no less than eight that can win the World Cup, most are European as in recent years. For non-football reasons, the South Americans have not had the possibility of reaching the final, except for the final that Argentina undeservedly did not win. They are details and this World Cup will be no different. It doesn’t have to be champion who plays best, there are many who can get it.”
#Qatar2022 @lioscaloni ️: “Unfortunately there are two players who have left with all the pain in the world because there were no guarantees that they would be physically well throughout the competition. Two more teammates have come who are well and will contribute their own.” — Argentina National Team (@Argentina)

The pressure on the Argentine National Team
“The team goes out to play much calmer because we don’t have the external pressure of not having won. Getting released is key to being able to play a World Cup. The emotional charge today is different, we are much calmer than before and hopefully (the players) can squeeze all the football they have inside.” How they get to the debut
“Both the coaching staff and the players enjoy being here, living through a World Cup. Those are not the difficult moments, they are the moments of enjoyment. The complicated moments are before the game, there you have to enjoy, prepare what we want to do and knowing that the team is fine. We managed to get into the game the way we wanted, which is the important thing.”
