The head coach of the Argentina national team, Lionel Scaloni, shared his impressions from the 1/8 final match of the World Cup 2026 against Egypt, and also spoke about the level of competition in the tournament.

The mentor of the world's top champions said that every match at the World Cup requires maximum concentration, and even weaker opponents at this stage are no longer lost.

" It has evidence of football, and the coach has been working with the team for a long time. This world championship is not easy for everyone. There is no common dominant command. France looks even stronger, but it was important against Paraguay. Spain is also facing problems.

Zhodna Zbirna does not show the same passion as she showed before the start of the tournament. Superniks are well prepared, and their minds are different from those of their peers.. Footballers who have played a lot of matches understand. We are pleased that we won all four matches, but we understand that we can still progress,” Scaloni said.

The match between the national teams of Argentina and Egypt will take place on 7 days. The starting whistle sounds at 19:00 Kyiv time.
