"I come so that our country finds out what has happened. It makes me very sad, I am not looking for any culprit but what has just happened is very sad."
Completely outraged, the coach of the Argentine National Team, Lionel Scaloni, regretted the role that occurred 5 minutes into the game against Brazil, for the Qualifiers towards the Qatar World Cup 2022, when Anvisa officials entered the field of play to take the four footballers of the national team for allegedly having falsified information when passing through Migrations.
"It is unfortunate, above all, because, if something happened or not, it was not the time to do it and it makes us very sad. When it should have been a party for everyone and enjoy this game of the best in the world and it ends in this "Scaloni added.
And he added: "I honestly would not know what word to use. I would like people in Argentina to understand that as a coach I have to defend my players. And if people come in saying that they wanted to take them away and deport them, there is no case in this case. chance because at no time were we notified that they could not play the game. The Conmebol delegate told us to go to the dressing room and I did that. I don't have much more to say. "
In that sense, while the Brazilian players did training on the court, Scaloni drew his conclusion.
"In this case we are the victims in the sense that we wanted to play the game, the Brazilian players also wanted to play the game and nothing else. The show was there to play."
