Lionel Scaloni and his unknown side as an actor: so he announced that he will be DT at Maxi Rodríguez’s farewell party

In case something was missing what to stand out Lionel Scaloni, in the last few hours has added to his list the talents he possesses for acting. This is due to the fact that the world champion coach made a particularly comical appearance to confirm that he will be present in Argentina, but not as coach of the national team, but as one of the coaches for the farewell match of maxi rodriguezin Coloso Bielsa.

Scaloni was shown together with the comedians Pachu Pena AND Pablo GranadosPleases Gabriel ‘Gringo’ Heinzeto confirm that both will head the teams that will animate the meeting with which the ‘Fiera’ will formally say goodbye to football.

The comedians, both renowned fans of Newell’s, headlined the sketch in which they announced to the two coaches that they will be present at Maxi’s farewell, the two technicians who have left the leper colony.

First, the comedians went to visit Heinze with the intention of adding them to its campus. But after Gringo’s refusal, Pachu and Pablo went to Pujato (30 km from Rosario) so that Scaloni would give them the opportunity to be present at the party that Rosario will have.

“They have no place on my team. There is a coach here, 30 kilometers, route 33. Go there, maybe they have a place“, commented the current leper coach to give rise to the appearance of Scaloni, who agreed to give both of them a chance through a test in which they could demonstrate their technique. There, the DT of the Selection thoroughly taught the his acting skills.

There was also praise that highlighted Scaloni’s performance. “Very good actor. The script that Pablo and Pachu gave him has been studied”, wrote Maxi Rodríguez on his Twitter account.

Similarly, the presence of the national team coach will not be the only luxury, but his appearance is in line with the greatness of some names and the general illusion of being able to participate in the farewell to the idol of Newell’s. The main one that tops the list is nothing more and nothing less Lionel Messinext to Luis Suarez and other great players who have shared the field with La Fiera.

This Wednesday, April 26, the official press conference will take place in which Rodríguez, accompanied by the head of the AFA, Claudio Chiqui Tapia, AND Ignatius Astorepresident of Newell’s, announce the confirmed date on which the farewell party will take place (scheduled for June 16) and some further confirmation on the names that will be part of the event.

The former player of Liverpool and other big clubs retired from football in November 2021, so nearly two years after hanging up his boots, he will be making his last visit to Coloso Bielsa, a stadium which shaped much of his career and in which perhaps he achieved the greatest joys of his long and award-winning career.
