He said he was a friend of Lionel Messi, now he contradicts him and shocks Argentina

Lionel Messi spoke on the pitch and compared this national team to Pep Guardiola's Barcelona, something that did not go unnoticed, to the point that the Catalan coach himself later stated that he felt honored to be placed on par with a selected world champion.

However, in the last few hours Nicolás Tagliafico spoke with La Nación and was against this similarity that Messi made, ensuring that "you cannot compare national team teams with club teams." What did Tagliafico say about Messi's comparison between the Argentine National Team and Barcelona? “I believe that you cannot compare national team teams with club teams. Some see each other every day, train every day together and battle on the weekends. In the National Team you get together a couple of times and in a World Cup you get together a few days before, there are seven finals."

What else did he say? “That Barcelona proposed a total offensive game. I had to enjoy it and anyone could score goals, give assists or appear anywhere. They were ultra-offensive and had a lot of possession. I believe that the National Team has more qualities. I feel that the National Team is liquid and moves where it suits it. We are like putty, we adapt to everything. That Barcelona was very defined, you knew how they played and it was very difficult to control them.”

Individually, those Barcelona players had to be ultra-offensive to only focus on the rival goal. On the other hand, in this National Team you have to play for your teammate knowing that one day you will have to play higher, another day you will defend more and another day you will have to be smarter to have the ball.”
