Passion vs Perspective… The ‘strategic confrontation’ of the masters was also hot

Scaloni and Di Maria were selected as the starters, and
PK guidance and scoring were effective in attacking Argentina.

Coach Deschamps and Mbappe
made a tie at the forefront of the match, but in the penalty shoot-out, the joys and sorrows


of Argentina came together. France introduced a new soccer centered on Silly. The 2022 World Cup in Qatar is over, but the young Argentine coach Lionel Scaloni (44) and the veteran French coach Didier Deschamps (58) played a match that will go down in history.

Coach Scaloni came out with an unexpected card in the final against France held at Lusail Stadium on the 19th. Right winger Angel Di Maria (34, Juventus) was placed as a starter on the left. Di Maria, who had not been able to show her skills in this World Cup, perfectly lived up to coach Scaloni’s expectations until she was substituted in the 19th minute of the second half. Di Maria not only contributed to the team’s first goal by inducing a penalty kick, but also scored the second goal.

As they were drawn 0-2, coach Deschamps also fired back. All offensive lines except for Kylian Mbappe have been changed. In the 41st minute of the first half, Olivier Giroud and Ousmane Dembele were removed to put Mbappe at the forefront. In the second half, Antoine Griezmann and Theo Hernandez were substituted. Afterwards, France scored two goals to equalize the score, but could not cross the penalty shootout wall. It was a moment when the contrasts of the two directors diverged.

Scaloni has been in charge of Argentina since 2018, when he was 40 years old. With a young coach at the forefront, Argentina lifted the trophy at the Copa America and succeeded in conquering this tournament as well. Coach Scaloni, the youngest coach at the Qatar World Cup, did not receive high praise from the beginning. Argentina fell victim to an upset by losing 1-2 to Saudi Arabia in the first match of the Qatar World Cup group stage. Also, coach Scaloni experimented with his tactics by changing the starting lineup every game except for Messi.메이저사이트 Even goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez missed a game. There were concerns that the team had not yet found an optimized strategy, but Scaloni looked to win the World Cup and used his players sparingly. Thanks to this, Argentina eased the physical burden and effectively blocked the attack of France, the winner of the previous tournament, in the final. After confirming the championship, coach Scaloni said, “It’s something I’ve always dreamed of as an Argentinean citizen,” and was delighted, saying, “I feel overwhelming emotions that are difficult to express in words.”

Although they finished runner-up, coach Deschamps also exited with applause. Deschamps, who has led the French national team since 2012, has changed French football, which was called ‘art’, into ‘silly’. France, with practical football at the forefront, won the 2018 World Cup in Russia and advanced to the final of this tournament. Coach Deschamps aimed to become the second coach in history to win two World Cups in a row since Italian coach Vittorio Pozzo, who led the championship in 1934 and 1938, but unfortunately swallowed tears.
