In the face of the double date of the Qualifiers and a few days after receiving the players from the Argentina Selection, the AFA premiered new murals on the Ezeiza property. These are two works: one of Lionel Messi, Diego Armando Maradona, Paulo Dybala, Carlos Tevez Y Gabriel batistuta; and another of César Menotti, Carlos Bilardo Y Alejandro Sabella.
The paradox of the situation was that, when the photos began to spread, many Twitter accounts indicated that Dybala was at the height of the two greatest idols in the history of Argentine football: Diego Armando Maradona and Lionel Messi. Above, his figure is the same size as that of the two numbers 10, above that of Gabriel Omar Batistuta and Carlitos Tevez.
The controversy grows because Dybala was not even called up for the knockout list and is not among the 50 that could be part of the next Copa América.
Bilardo, Menotti and Sabella also appear.
