to see the worldwide recognition
of the geniuses
of our team. Congratulations Leo, Dibu, Lionel Scaloni (and the fans too)!!!" Macri's celebration began earlier on Twitter.

that put Argentina at the top," concluded in his message who also holds a position at the FIFA Foundation, who has not yet defined whether or not he will be a candidate for president for Together for the change.

"Best player, best goalkeeper, best coach and best fans! We are world champions and they
continue to make us proud
. Thank you Messi, Dibu and Scaloni for continuing the joy and teaching:
Argentines can be the best!
