Di Maria swings at Messi!

Argentina international Angel Di Maria explained why Argentina’s coronation at the 2022 World Cup is of particular importance to him.

Victorious in the 2022 World Cup with Argentina against France (3-3, tab 4-2), Angel Di Maria relishes the fact of having offered the Albiceleste its third star.

But the pride ofEl Fideo lies above all in the fact of having allowed his great friend and teammate in the selection, Lionel Messi, to lift the supreme trophy, the only one missing from his record.

“It was more about him than me, I wanted to win this World Cup for him. For me, he is without a doubt the best player in history,” declared the Benfica striker in a documentary byApple TV dedicated to La Pulga.
