Scaloni 'eternally Grateful' Following Argentina’s Second Consecutive Copa America Victory
FIFA World Cup: Lionel Scaloni has established his legacy as a cult hero for Argentina. The side had not won a Copa America since 1993 and not won a FIFA World Cup since 1986 edition of the tournament.
Scaloni was appointed as the head coach of the side in 2018 and went on to lead Argentina to become the first South American team to win three major tournaments in a row. Following the final whistle an ecstatic Scaloni spoke to the media.
"In the second half we improved and we deserved to win. In extra time, the team always gives an extra. I am eternally grateful to this team for how they give themselves. I am very happy because people are happy and that is what we are here for: so that people identify with the team," said Lionel to reporters in the post-game conference.
