A month after winning the title after defeating France in a breathtaking final, several stars including the coach of the team had happy memories of winning the trophy. Scaloni paid tribute to Messire during the memorial service on social media.
In an interview with the Spanish media, Scaloni praised Messi and said that Messi is a true football leader. Everyone saw it in the World Cup. His talent for energizing people not only on the field but also off the field is extraordinary.
He also said that every person can speak, it is a matter of who is speaking for what purpose and what message they want to convey. When Messi speaks, teammates look on. Everyone is born with a different motivation. Honestly it's unbelievable.
Messi took home the title of a major international tournament for the first time in his career after defeating Brazil in the final of the 2021 Copa America. And that is what Scaloni thinks has given him confidence in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
He said, Messi enjoyed the Copa America in Brazil. That's why he felt more comfortable playing with his teammates than at any other time in this tournament.
