Lionel Messi will captain a potent team selected by Lionel Scaloni in Qatar for the 2022 World Cup, according to the Argentina team announcement.
The 2021 Copa America champions, who feature players like Lionel Messi, Angel Di Maria, and Lautaro Martinez in their lineup, will be one of the strong favorites to win the Qatar World Cup in 2022. In Group C, the previous winners will compete against Saudi Arabia, Mexico, and Poland.
But Argentina consistently faces the same issue during World Cups. When there are too many attacks, the tactical strategy that must be used to handle each forward becomes Frankenstein’s monster. Then, several stars collide, sending shockwaves through the changing area. Soul-searching, please.
