Scaloni returned to Qatar, made a note for the local TV and met the France DT again

Lionel Scaloni returned to Qatar, where just over four months ago he lifted the World Cup. The Argentina national team coach returned to the land of his title as part of a world coaching congress organized by FIFA, which was attended by the 32 coaches who led the World Cup.

With the presence as a guest of Gianni Infantino, president of FIFA, and accompanied by his field assistant Walter Samuel, in the first of the two days of the congress discussing game ideas, Scaloni had to sit at a table next door Didier Deschamps, the coach of France. Yes, the very one who won the world final…

Scaloni, on the other hand, participated as a guest in an interview with Doha TV and we saw some trends in the note, with some definitions, such as when When asked about Maradona, he says “for me Messi He’s always the best.” He also praised the work of Saudi Arabia, who surprised him by beating Neymar and Bono, the Moroccan goalkeeper, on debuts.

Infantino’s message

In the coaches’ gallery there was space, in addition to the usual chatter, for some good football matches in which the detés and Infantino joined. The FIFA boss then summed up: “My thanks to all the coaches and coaching staff of the Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup who are participating in the two-day forum here in Doha. The first day is already full, but not after having some productive sessions with the coaches of the 32 national teams that made the best FIFA World Cup possible. I can tell you it was a training both on and off the pitch!”

He added: “The important thing is that all participants have contributed and we have certainly learned a lot from the various exchanges on a variety of topics. This will help us in terms of preparation as we start preparing for the 2026 FIFA World Cup in 48 teams in Canada, Mexico and the United States”.
