Jose Peseiro, the current coach of the Super Eagles, praised Argentina after La Albiceleste won the World Cup on Sunday night, which is their first in 36 years.
An exciting final match took place at the Lusail Iconic Stadium, with Lionel Scaloni’s team defeating France 4-2 on penalties.
Following 120 minutes of exhilarating football action, the game finished in a 3-3 draw.
Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia shockingly 2-1 to get the competition off to a sad start.
Although they suffered a setback, the South Americans bounced back and won the rest of their games.
Additionally, in Qatar 2022, South Americans won every individual prize.
Lionel Messi, the competition’s all-star striker, won the Best Player award, Emiliano Martinez won Best Goalkeeper, and young midfielder Enzo Fernandes won Best Young Player. Emiliano Martinez and Enzo Fernandes also won individual awards for their respective positions in goal.
“Congratulations Argentina on winning your third World Cup!
“It was an exciting game, what an incredible match! You deserve every minute of this title, well done!” Peseiro wrote on his Twitter handle.
