Lionel Messi managed to settle a pending account and won the World Cup held in Qatar, being the main figure of the Argentine team. However, before the glorious performance in the Middle East, the 'Flea' had four previous attempts and failed. In Russia 2018, there was a player who was blamed for the elimination and now he is having a hard time in Europe.

This is Willy Caballero. The goalkeeper was summoned for the 2018 World Cup in Russia by Jorge Sampaoli, who gave him the confidence to start the first two matches of the group stage. Due to his good handling of the ball on his feet, the manager considered that he was the best option to defend the albiceleste goal and he was wrong in his prediction.

After a surprise draw against Iceland, on the first day, Argentina was going for the victory against Croatia. However, a rude mistake by Caballero caused the Europeans to open the account. The Albiceleste fell 3-0 and put their classification in jeopardy. Against Nigeria, the pass to the round of 16 was achieved, already with Franco Armani in goal, and the path of the national team lasted until the round of 16, where they lost to France.

What Willy Caballero lives after the 2018 World Cup in Russia:

The worst was yet to come for the Argentine goalkeeper, who barely had minutes in the Chelsea shirt in the Premier League. Subsequently, he was signed by Southampton, where he has no place either. The last time he saved was in March, for the FA Cup. From there he was erased by his manager. At 41 years old, his retirement is closer than the possibility of having a leading role in the Old Continent.
