In press conferences of Mauricio Pochettino, questions about the Argentine national team cannot be missing, and the conference before the match between Paris Saint-Germain and Lorient could not be the exception. During the event, the coach of the Parisian team was asked about the group in which the Albiceleste was placed after the last draw for the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
"The groups are always difficult. More difficult than on paper. In Argentina's group, there is Mexico, Poland, and Saudi Arabia. On paper, Argentina may be the big favorite, but you have to compete, you have to play, and you have to give the ball. The World Cup is the states of form in which the players arrive."

In addition, the Argentine strategist also spoke about the group of the current World Champion, France. In that sense, he confirmed that he gave advice to the players who are part of the Paris squad.
"France is also a clear favorite in their group. I like Denmark, I told Mbappe and Kimpembe to be careful with them because it is a good team. Both Argentina and France are clear favorites not only to advance from the group, but to win the World Cup," he said.
