He could have been a champion like Messi, an accident cut short his dream, now he loses his life

Lionel Messi managed to settle the only slope in his career. In the World Cup in Qatar, in the fifth attempt, he won the competition, being the main figure of the Argentine team. Now, a player who could have been champion of the most important tournament at the country level with the Albiceleste and whose dream of representing the national team was cut short by an accident, lost his life.

Like the top winner of the Ballon d'Or, he hoped to represent the Argentine team in a World Cup, however, misfortune caused him to stay out of the appointment due to an accident that caused him to cut in a tendon of the foot. This is Luis Antonio Ludueña, idol of Talleres de Córdoba, who lost his life at the age of 69.

The 'Hacha', who played for San Lorenzo de Córdoba, Talleres, Estudiantes de Río Cuarto and Instituto de Córdoba, was the father of Daniel, a former River Plate player, and Gonzalo Ludueña. In his professional career, he became the fourth top scorer in the 'T' and almost joined the world champion team in 1978, led by César Luis Menotti.

The misfortune of the 'Hacha' Ludueña in 1978:

His talent allowed him to be called by Menotti to form an Argentine national team that faced Palmeiras in 1978. That same year, the World Cup was organized in the country and "Hacha" Ludueña was going to be taken into account by "Flaco ', however, a tendon cut in his foot, a day before the concentration, caused him to miss the competition, where the Albiceleste won their first world title.
