The statements of Rodrigo DePaul from yesterday in TyC Sportsin which he stated that, according to his criteria, the current Argentine National Team It was the best of all time, it was going to bring a tail and less than 24 hours later, a 1986 world champion, came out strong at the crossing.
Pedro Pablo Pasculli, author of the goal once morest Uruguay to advance in the round of 16, did not walk around and answered the current Atlético de Madrid player. “I invite De Paul to see the 86 World Cup and our team that was undefeated champion. This team lost to Saudi Arabia, who had never beaten us before“said the champion in Mexico, together with Diego Armando Maradona, in statements in Super Deportivo by Radio Villa Trinidad.
Then, he substantiated his position and took a plate from the title in an undefeated condition of 86: “I don’t think it’s the best Selection in history. There were very good selections. The one from 78 that made people amused a lot. Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia, which is the first time they have beaten us in a match. We, for example, were world champions, undefeated. We didn’t lose any game. I understand what you’re saying, but maybe you didn’t see the rest of the selections“.
Finally, and without saving himself, he concluded: “He says that this team did not have the best players, but he thinks it was the best in history. How is that? He says that there were other teams with better players, but they are not the best in history. So he disrespects his teammates, saying they weren’t the best. We were the best in ’86, but De Paul didn’t see him at that World Cup. I don’t know where he was, he hadn’t started playing soccer yet and he wasn’t even born. The truth is I would invite you to see the 1986 World Cup and our National Team“.
De Paul’s statements that opened the controversy over the best Argentine National Team in history
The midfielder of Lionel Scaloni’s team, a key player in the Qatar World Cup, commented in dialogue with TyC Sports from Madrid: “I think we ended up making, forgive me all, the best National Team our country had. I do not say it from the ego, far from it. I think the National Team had better players than those of us who make up this one, but as a team we beat all the current champions, the last American champion (Brazil), the last European champion (Italy) and the last world champion. (France)“.
“It wasn’t easy, we played a Qualifier without losing, we won in Bolivia following 15 years, we won in Peru following I don’t know how long, we broke the record for unbeaten matches. As a team, this National Team achieved something extremely important and also the connection with the public… People saw that we were fans who had the chance to defend the shirt“, finished.
