“I am very happy to see everything that is happening. It was what we wanted. The people and the family during the tournament… It was something incredible that we experienced and we have another match, which is exactly what we wanted.

We asked people to trust us. This group is crazy. It’s another final that Argentina are playing in, now is the time to enjoy it all. I’m thinking about my family right now. I have always said that I am everything to myself. Those who always support me.

I’ve been through hard times, but I’ve also been through good times, and I’ve had some amazing times today. I want to rejoice together with them, with all the fans and with those who are in Argentina”, – Lionel Messireports Mundo Deportivo.
