The tense atmosphere within the Argentina national team

The tense atmosphere within the Argentine national team is uncontrollable, and proof of this were the controversial statements made by Sergio Agüero, who appeared before the press after the defeat against Croatia in the 2018 Russia World Cup, a result that puts them on the verge of elimination.

A journalist asked Sergio Agüero about what Jorge Sampaoli, the coach of the Argentine national team, said, claiming that some players did not adapt to his project and that is why it failed.

Here's what happened

"Jorge Sampaoli said that maybe the players did not adapt to the project and the project failed. Do you feel that happened to you?", the press man asked Sergio Agüero, who responded with a sharp phrase: "Let him say whatever he wants."

Sergio Agüero's response was short, but his gestures and the context that the Argentine national team is going through show the wear and tear of the relationship between the players and Jorge Sampaoli. The atmosphere is not the best within the team, and this is reflected in the poor results achieved in Russia 2018.
