​Saudi Arabia pulled off a shock Tuesday at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar after the Saudis beat Argentina 2-1 despite leading 1-0 at half-time.

It was a real shock for the Argentina national team, especially since the team coached by Scaloni had 3 goals disallowed due to offside.

After the end of the game, there was silence in the locker room, and Argentine journalists managed to find out what Lionel Messi told his colleagues on the way to the hotel.

Lionel Messi, a motivational speech for his colleagues

Lionel Messi is undoubtedly the most important player in the Argentina national team, and he is the player who feels the most about the unexpected setback with Saudi Arabia.

Compared to Maradona, Messi has often been criticized by pundits as well as Argentina fans that he will never be able to rise to the level of the great former Pumas player Diego Armando Maradona.

After that setback, the World Cup sounds like a lofty goal for Argentina, but they can get revenge against Mexico and Poland.

On the bus, on the way to the hotel, Lionel Messi would tell his teammates that this is a really difficult moment that they will have to go through together to stay united.

Moreover, Messi explained to his compatriots that this failure is a chance to prove in future games that Argentina means much more than what was seen in the match against Saudi Arabia.
