Argentina head coach, Lionel Scaloni, has made an honest admission about Cape Verde following both sides’ World Cup Round of 32 encounter.
Scaloni watched as Argentina defeated Cape Verde 3-2 to progress to the Round of 16 stage earlier today.
Scaloni’s side will now face Egypt in their next fixture on Tuesday.
Speaking at his post-match interview after the game, Scaloni admitted that the Blue Sharks proved that they are a great team after Argentina narrowly won.
“A really tough match, you always have to focus on the positives. This team never gives up,” Scaloni said.
“And I have to give credit to our opponents— the truth is, when people say there’s no such thing as an easy opponent, today proved they’re a great team.
“And I will take away the contribution from everyone. The truth is, everyone finished really tired, because they gave it their all.”
