Lionel Scaloni has only known success since his arrival, as it is not for nothing that the Argentina national team has gone 30 games without losing and gives Argentine fans more expectations of what the Qatar 2022 World Cup will be like.

Likewise, Scaloni achieved with Argentina the winning of the 2021 Copa America, something that had not been achieved since 1993 and that the Argentine national team had lost in different finals. Faced with this good streak, the so-called ‘Scaloneta’ was born in Argentina, in support of Lionel Scaloni's work. What does the Argentine coach think about this?

Scaloni's opinion on the 'Scaloneta'

Lionel Scaloni referred to the 'Scaloneta', stating that it is a bit uncomfortable; however, if Argentine fans like it and it brings them together, it is welcome: "It makes me uncomfortable, but I can't do much about it. I can only thank the affection of the people for the national team and nothing else. If people like it, have a good time with the team, and feel identified, I'm not going to stop however many people... It's fine, but it really makes me uncomfortable," he said.

Likewise, Lionel Scaloni expressed pride that people feel close to the Argentina national team and hopes that this will continue with his team and future Argentine squads: "I am proud that people feel identified. Then, everything that happens on the field, on the street, makes me uncomfortable because I am not one to express much. But well, the gratitude is enormous. But what is being experienced, I hope it will always be there. Because I have not seen a national team that does not give its all, it is not that these guys give more than others, now things have worked out... it's going better, we won and everything is magnified. But the previous teams as well and they haven't made it into history because of just one step," he said.

Finally, he asked Argentine fans that support must be constant for future national teams. "People have to understand that when we are not here and these guys are not here, the ones who come after them will be the same. Playing with this shirt will always be the greatest. I hope people understand that, because that connection is basic and gives you an extra edge. Then, you win and if we only think about winning, that's where we go wrong," he added.
