00:42It's difficult, as I just said, it's a hard moment to realize,
00:47the first thing that comes to me and I thought about it in the dressing room is that it's done,
00:55the national team is not for me, as I just said, it's four finals, it's not for me,
01:03unfortunately I looked for it, it was what I wanted the most, it didn't happen to me, but I think it's done.
01:14He always voted for Argentina and I think that love he has for Argentina is indisputable,
01:21but you also have to understand his situation after losing the finals,
01:26it was understandable, but I think he will recapacitate and will be aware of coming back.
01:31For you, is it good or bad news for Messi to return to the national team?
01:36For me, seeing Messi play football is always very good news,
01:40whether it's with the shirt or not, with the Barça one I can do it every day and enjoy it,
01:45with his national team, for the importance and for what it means for him, good news for the future.
01:51How do you see the future of the Argentine national team?
01:56We know that the illusion is always there, we are the Argentine national team
02:01and we know that we have to be protagonists because that's what history says.
02:07In these quarter-finals, we have to try to do things right,
02:12to be able to move forward game by game, which is our idea,
02:17to try to get to the final and, obviously, to win the Cup.
02:28I always said it, I am always available to try to be with the national team,
02:34to give my best, my biggest dream is to get a title with the national team,

03:19with the pandemic and the economic situation, it's a caress for the soul.
03:23Yes, it's unique, it's unique, it's unique, that's unique,
03:26there won't be another rematch like that, it's like Italy in the 90s,
