Indio Solari, sold to ‘Scaloneta’: from Messi’s “invincible soul” to Dibu Martínez’s “divine psychopath”

“To show crowds like that in ‘Lord of the Rings,’ Peter Jackson had to blow smoke out of computers”. With the simplicity, wit and depth that have always characterized him, the musician Carlos ‘Indio’ Solari spoke this Sunday for the first time about the title che Argentina national team conquered at the Qatar 2022 World Cup, without giving up the popular demonstration in various parts of the world to celebrate it, and surrendering at the feet of the captain Lionel Messi and the archer Emiliano ‘Dibu’ Martinez.

It was in an interview published by the reporter Marcello Figueras In the portal “Rocket to the Moon”where the man from Entre Ríos, cult character of national rock since ‘Patricio Rey y los Redonditos de Ricota’ and fan of Juan Román Riquelme, He referred to what La Scaloneta has achieved on Arab soil, which, according to what he confessed, made him “very” enthusiastic..

“I saw a general joy. It gathered an incomprehensible crowd. An insane crowd by our standards, but it would have been anywhere else in the world as well. An epic and epic greatness. There was no extra! To show a crowd like that in The Lord of the Rings, Peter Jackson had to blow the smoke off the computers. (Laughs.) Crazy!”held.

“I think it’s cute, this quilombo. I was very excited the other day. I perceived the polenta of a group of guys who are hungry to justify their lives, with clear goals. That’s how you can. Because they were united. A human group that had a project that encouraged from the gut. Here is the key. If there is no emotion, nothing happens“highlighted who currently spreads his wings in “The Fundamentalists of Air Conditioning”.

“You saw what happened in Scotland, in Naples… Crazy stuff! Things like this don’t happen in the rest of the world when, for example, France wins. And when asked who was celebrating, he explained why: They said that The national team was an inspiring group from many points of view. They must have conveyed confidence in their way of playing and through their declarations. And what’s more, they win: they are heroes! Maradona opened those doors for us,” said the musician , a few days after his 74th birthday.

And, speaking of what he experienced specifically in Buenos Aires, he added: “You have to go up to the Obelisk… Have you ever gone up there? I do. You arrive with the crayfish that you want to stay and live there for two days and only then you get off. Such a narrow stairway… It’s very high! When there are that many people, someone usually inevitably dies, by the law of probability. It cannot be understood that there have not been many who have suffered nonsense or accidents, what has been there has been mathematically minimal, beyond the logical pain of the relatives. Crazy, statistically speaking! A massive almost Peronist thing has been generated, in its expressiveness. Something that involved the emotion of the entire country. The whole company was there! The big problem is that no one could reward that all. There is an avant-garde of young people who find an epic story in it. The need for a profound transformation is so great that there is no political party that can accommodate it, life goes much faster than ideology“.

The Indian has not missed the references that have been made with Lionel Messi for so many years, the captain of the Albiceleste, for not having been able to win an important championship with the senior national team. “The ‘cold chest’ ate the championship. I’ve seen him play with an invincible soulin front of anyone. He had to be the captain, not only in football, and he gave up. Yet it was dramatic,” he explained.

“On the 24-hour channels, they end up saying stupid things that people buy, as if they were the gospel. And the day the woman gored them, they get up and take it out on Messi. It was a group of journalists, yes, who used their tricks and pissed off… they said absurd things. A boy on his knees asking: “Don’t play Fideo…” That other boy who dug his grave, asking Messi to retire before the World Cup… I don’t know who will hire these people from here on out. The whole short-skinned world must hate them!he exclaimed.

And also gave his opinion on the adventures of Emiliano ‘Dibu’ Martinez:”He is a divine psychopath. If he hadn’t saved the last shot of the match against France, everything would have gone down the drain. But he put it in the bank. So you have to put yourself in front of a guy who doesn’t kick like you or me. He hits you on the head and you stay groggy! Did you see what she did with her hand (when she received the Gold Glove award)? The sheikh looked at him … he He didn’t understand anything, ever, poor thing! “

The final against France: “I couldn’t believe they played so well. Until then they hadn’t shown such fluid articulation. They entered the penalty area playing! But then the pressure became unbearable. Virginia (my partner) couldn’t watch the game, she I took the opportunity to clean the house. I walked all the time, I couldn’t sit down. I couldn’t stand it! When they tied us up, Argentina played a joke on me. I thought the worst, why are we always going to wet the cookie and in the end nothing happens The best player in the world has been taken prisoner… It has happened to us a thousand times!
But we won. And in that circumstance everyone cried and he (Messi) laughed. A smile as if to say: ‘I have a happiness that has no bottom, and I can’t hide it'”.

Messi and Maradona:”Being Messi must be silly, like being Maradona. Do you know what it’s like to go to Jakarta and still be Messi? I said he started very young and must have gotten used to it little by little. My life has changed a lot, popularity. They are unmanageable situations. Thankfully they decided not to go to Plaza de Mayo. They would have torn them apart!
Messi has not been spoiled by fame. I love Maradona, but he did things differently: he got into character, which ended up acquiring monumental dimensions. I don’t see Messi like this, but I liked that he agreed to be captain, that he became more serious and went yelling at the referee. What’s a captain to do!”

Kylian Mbbape:”He’s an insufferable guy, that. Neymar annoys him, he wants to be the best in the world now. He has some respect for those who were the greatest before you!”
