While Tchouaméni belittled Lionel Messi, what Dembélé said and surprised in Argentina
The winger recalled what he experienced with Leo at FC Barcelona and surrendered at the feet of the Argentina captain
Within hours of the match between Argentina and France, within the framework of the World Cup final in Qatar, Ousmane Dembélé referred to what it will be like to face Lionel Messi, his former teammate at FC Barcelona. While Aurélien Tchouaméni belittled the 'Flea', the winger of the current world champion surrendered at the feet of the top winner of the Ballon d'Or (7).
When France got their pass to the World Cup final, Tchouaméni referred to what will be the match against Argentina, who beat Australia, the Netherlands and Croatia, in the knockout phases, to reach the match on December 18. The Real Madrid midfielder ignored Leo to praise Kylian Mbappé, whom he described as "the best player in the world".

For his part, Dembélé, who shared the dressing room from the 2017-2018 season to the 2020-2021 campaign with Leo, did not hide his admiration for the '10' from Argentina. "Messi is an exceptional player. I loved Barcelona because of Messi and Iniesta. I spent very good years with him. He helped me a lot when I arrived in Barcelona. I hope he doesn't play well in this final, because he is very dangerous”.
Argentina and the strategy to achieve the title:
Lionel Scaloni, coach of the Argentine team, has his mind set on France and would choose to play with a line of five in the background. If he confirms the presence of three central defenders and two wingers, Ángel Di María would not start. La Albiceleste is looking for its third world star, after those achieved in 1978 and 1986.
