Curious scenes in the conference: infiltrated and warned the Argentina coach: “I want you to be ready!”

A young man walked into the conference room, grabbed a microphone and drew the coach's attention about the opponents at the summer's World Cup.

The fan told Scaloni that Argentina would face much stronger national teams, at which point he was sent off.

Wearing an Argentina national team shirt with the number 10 and the text “La mano de Dios” (no – Hand of God, Diego Maradona's goal from the WC 1986 with England)”, he said a few words and was immediately kicked out of the press conference.

“I want you to be ready because France is a very good team, better than Brazil and Spain, with all due respect. Mbappe is the best player in the world, along with Messi and Dibu Martínez” said the young man.

Lionel Scaloni was surprised by the supporter's gesture and did not respond, preferring to smile a few times when the young man spoke to him.

🗣️ “Yo quiero que ESTÉS PREPARADO porque FRANCIA ES MUY BUEN EQUIPO, más que Brasil y España, con respeto. MBAPPÉ ES EL JOR JUGADOR DEL MUNDO, con Messi y el Dibu Martínez”.
