Argentine Squad for Qatar WC

November 13, Sunday, 2022

The biggest craze and event of 2022 is Qatar World Cup. Around which various types of planning are going on for the last four years. Argentina didn't do much better at the 2018 World Cup in Russia, finishing as runners-up in Group C and reaching the quarter-finals before losing to France. In the 2018 World Cup, Argentina's squad had very good and world-class players in the forwards, but there were no world-class players in the defense. Due to which Argentina could not reach the semi-finals. But after the World Cup in 2018, Leonel Scaloni took charge of Argentina's head cell, and Argentina tied the whole team in a straight line. Although in 2019, Argentina had to lose the Copa America final against Brazil, but you will be surprised to hear that since then, Argentina has not lost any more.

26-man squad announced by Argentina for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

The position that mastermind Lionel Scolni has given the most importance to is in defence. Manchester United legend Lisandro Martínez will play in this position at full-back, although there is another in his position, Kuti Romero. Also General Otamendi, Acuna, Foyeth have been performing well for their clubs recently. Yesterday too Foyeth had two assists for his club and there were also three key tackles.

However, Argentina's most reliable midfielder trio is missing in this World Cup. Who are, De Paul, Parades, Lo Celso. While De Paul and Parades are in the Argentina squad, you may already know that Lo Celso is out of the Argentina squad due to his injury. However, playing in the World Cup for Argentina was a dream come true, as he revealed yesterday in an Instagram post.

Lo Celso:

"The truth is very difficult, even difficult for me to accept. It is a privilege and a dream for any kid to play in the World Cup. The injury took me too far, it's not possible to go back to the World Cup from there. But my biggest wish is that my teammates play well for the Argentina team. The Argentina team will win and bring home the World Cup. Come on Argentina."

His team mates expressed grief over his injury exclusion from the team and told him to stay strong. All other members of the Argentina team, including the selection board, expressed their love for him and told him to work hard to recover and return to the team.

Here you can see the legendary Mascherano, who also wished the legendary midfielder with just one (love) emoji. However, the comment that I have searched for the most is that of Lionel Messi. I was thinking that while everyone was condoling Lo celso in different ways, the absence of Lionel Messi surprised me. I opened my own Instagram account and entered Lo Celso's Instagram post. Towards the end of everyone's comments, I saw a comment from our legendary, magical player, Lionel Messi.

Not only Lionel Messi but also another legendary player Neymar was present there.

On this occasion I followed all the players on Instagram. Another thing I was surprised to see while following all the players on Instagram is their number of followers. Usually an average player has an average number of followers of 5 million. Di Maria has 18 million followers there, which is great to see because our Di Maria is an underrated GOAT. Later I entered another legendary player Neymar's page and saw that his number of followers is about 181 million!! Which is about 40-50 times more than others. Then seeing our king player Lionel Messi's hall numbers made me almost senseless. His number of followers is 372 million! That is a little more than Neymar's double. Of course, I don't follow Ronaldo yet and don't know how many followers he has. If you know, please comment!
