LUSAIL: Argentina manager Lionel Scaloni announced his team would enjoy muted celebrations after reaching the World Cup final with a 3-0 victory over Croatia.
After beginning the tournament with a shocking loss to Saudi Arabia, Argentina won their fifth straight game behind goals from Julian Alvarez and Lionel Messi.
After the semifinal, Scaloni said, "We'll rejoice because we know it's exciting to get to the final." "However, we still have a step to go. We should cherish this historic occasion, but that's all there is to it. We must concentrate on the upcoming game. Messi, who has five goals and three assists so far in this competition, received high appreciation from Scaloni. He now has 11 goals overall at the World Cup, surpassing Gabriel Batistuta as Argentina's all-time best scorer.
Of course, we claim that Messi is (the best player ever), and perhaps we are being chauvinistic because, to me, that makes sense. However, I am certain that he is the finest, he remarked.
It's something I've been saying for a while. I feel honoured to witness him practise and play. It's thrilling because watching him play gives Argentinians a great deal of inspiration every time. It's an honour to have him on our team. In addition, Scaloni complimented the tens of thousands of Argentinian supporters who were present at Lusail Stadium and who frequently started singing far in advance of the scheduled kickoff time of 10 p.m.
He said, "I have the dream job of all Argentines." "You could feel the support we received from our people throughout. I will never forget it. We are appreciative of them and are all working together in the same direction.
