Midfielder Lucas Biglia stated on Saturday, after Argentina's elimination in the round of 16 of the World Cup in Russia, that for him it's time to step aside and resign from the national team.
In the mixed zone of the Kazan Arena, the Milan player admitted that the Argentine internationals leave "with much sadness, because for some it's the end".
"It's time to step aside, be honest with oneself. I gave everything inside and out," he acknowledged after the adverse 4-3 against the French squad, whom they were leading 1-2.
Asked about the development of the match, Lucas Biglia pointed out that "today the best version of Argentina was seen".
"Until 1-2, despite their speed difficulties, I thought we played a great game. I thought I saw a superior Argentina. The 2-2 came and, from 3-2 onwards, it was a lot of guts and heart," he analyzed.
Lucas Biglia indicated that "with the performance the guys gave today, this was meant for something else" and asked to leave the upcoming generation, "which is rich in players", to work tranquilly so they can take Argentina where it belongs.
