Argentine coach Lionel Scaloni has warned that the coaching staff do not have “the time to wait for players with discomfort” after the controversy over changes to the final 26-man squad, just five days before his World Cup debut against ‘Saudi Arabia . for group C of Qatar 2022. “We don’t have time to wait for players with some discomfort, we are anxious that they arrive safe and sound and it is true that we have until the last day before the debut to change names. Let’s hope there are no problems but these are days that we have to face, it’s complicated for us and for them, we all need it well,” commented the DT in an interview with Public TV.
“We are serene, we have always been on the part of the technical staff and we want to pass it on to the players. It is a football World Cup and it must be contextualised”, he relativized.
“The World Cup is different from the usual tournaments but it’s similar to the America’s Cup or the Olympics, with no margin for error and you have to avoid moments of distraction on the pitch or mistakes because they exclude you and the players have to understand that,” he explained.
