He failed with Messi, the fans can't see him and he criticized the World Cup in Qatar
His time with the National Team was a resounding failure and now he is questioning FIFA
The 2018 World Cup in Russia does not bring back good memories for the Argentine team, much less for the fans. In that edition, the Albiceleste failed to get past the round of 16. Now, the culprit of the failure, who had a fight with Lionel Messi, questioned the organization of the World Cup that started with the match between Qatar and Ecuador.
This is Jorge Sampaoli. The former coach of the National Team did not hold anything back and spoke against FIFA for organizing the World Cup in Qatar. ‘Many times FIFA calls against racism, gender inequalities, but when there are economic interests, all that disappears. Everyone has an opinion, but no one comes together to ensure that this does not happen, ’he explained.

Sampaoli is not well remembered in the country. After succeeding with the South American country, Chile, and making the leap to Spanish soccer, where he managed Sevilla, he was hired by Argentina to replace Edgardo Bauza, and had some high expectations.
He managed to get into the 2018 World Cup with the jousts and in the tournament he had problems from the start. He drew against Iceland, lost against Croatia and had an agonizing victory against Nigeria. In the round of 16 they were beaten by France.
Sampaoli's fight with Lionel Messi:
After his passing through the Albiceleste, the DT arrived at the Brazilian Santos, where he coincided with Márcio Zanardi. Sampaoli's former technical assistant revealed that in a conversation the Argentine explained that he had a fight with Lionel Messi, captain of the National Team, during the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
