"With Kylian, who had a great year. I want to thank my teammates, Scaloni, and Dibu. We are here representing them, without them we wouldn't be here today. It's part of a recognition to the whole group for what we did," he began his speech.
"This year was crazy for me, I was able to achieve my dream after fighting, searching, insisting, and in the end, it happened and it's the most beautiful thing that happened in my career. For any player, very few can achieve it and thanks to God it happened. I want to obviously thank my family, the people of Argentina, for living it in a special way and it will remain in the memories for life. A big kiss to my kids who are watching. Thank you," he concluded.
