🚨Ángel Di María on why Argentina lost the World Cup final: "People will say it was simply a football match, but from everything I witnessed, it never felt that way. I've been in that dressing room before, and believe me, I know when something is wrong with my teammates. You don't need anyone to tell you—you can see it in their faces, in their silence, in the way they carry themselves. Something was definitely wrong before that final." "I saw emotions that went far beyond the pressure of playing for a World Cup. Some of the boys looked mentally exhausted before a ball had even been kicked. I'm not going to point fingers or make accusations, but anyone who has lived through moments like these would understand why that performance didn't reflect the real Argentina." "The fans deserved better, and so did those players who have always given everything for the badge. Whatever happened behind closed doors, I hope one day the full story is told. Until then, all I can say is that my love for Argentina will never change. We have fallen before, and we have always found a way to rise again. Argentina forever. 🇦🇷"
