Italian legendary coach Luciano Sacchi recently told La Gazzetta dello Sport that he talked about the World Cup in Qatar and hoped Lionel Messi would win the championship.
About Argentina-Croatia
“I was sitting next to Ars è ne Wenger and half an hour later we had the same impression: Croatia did better as a team. It was always a pleasure to see Modric play and Kovacic surprised me. But they came through two games of overtime. Coupled with the new stoppage time rules, it’s like they played one more game. Not only physical fatigue, but also mental fatigue. They didn’t copy the perfect game against Brazil. ”
About the disappointing big team
“Spain and Brazil. Spain relies on slow, vertical passes to keep them closed, and they don’t know how to innovate. Just like the technological features of Brazil have come to a standstill. Football is moving in another direction, and the game will become smarter and more teamwork. Germany played very well in the first half against Japan, but then that performance disappeared. I read about the internal tension. I don’t know the internal situation. What I know is that when I train the team, I first choose reliable players and then good players. ”
About France-Argentina
“how to win? That’s what I did against Napoli: my theory is that they have Maradona and OK, then we have three ways. First, we keep the ball under control so Diego doesn’t have the ball. Second, when they have the ball, the way we attack is not to let the ball come to Diego’s feet. Third, if Diego gets the ball, we have to stick together to deal with him. The same is true against Lionel Messi and Mbappe, playing as a team against phenomenal players. Who has the best chance of winning the championship? I don’t know, but I want Lionel Messi to win and crown his brilliant career. Mbappe has already won. ”
