Riquelme criticized Van Gaal for his statements against Messi: “You can’t make the best angry”

“It was wonderful to see Agustín and Lola (their children) celebrate, paint their faces, thank the boys of the National Team for the joy they gave us Argentines. It was beautiful”said the second vice president of Mouth to ESPN.

“For those who like football, it was beautiful to see Messi win the World Cup. It rarely happened that everyone agreed that he deserved to win it. That shows what he is. I’m very happy, he knows very well Well, I love him a lot, I don’t bother him, but we have a very good relationship”added the idol from Boca, who confessed that he spoke twice with the Albiceleste captain during the World Cup in Qatar.

Riquelme told about an exchange of messages with Messi by cell phone: it was after the defeat against Saudi Arabia by 2 to 1, at the beginning of the competition, and when Lionel Scaloni’s team became world champion.

“In the World Cup I only wrote to him when we lost the first game and when he won the final. Not only because now he won, but when they asked me years ago, I said that Argentina was a favorite for Messi, and in the end he got it,” he said.

“He likes to compete and plays like the players of before. Messi plays ball like in the neighborhood, he doesn’t play football, nothing ever hurts, it can hurt to train, but not to play”said Román about the Rosario.

He also referred to the famous gesture of the “Topo Gigio” that Riquelme himself patented in the world of football (in the celebration of a goal against River in the Bombonera in a gesture of rebellion against former president Mauricio Macri) and that Messi made him DT Van Gaal in the match against the Netherlands, which the “albiceleste” won on penalties.

“I think Van Gaal had declared something, like he hadn’t touched her in the World Cup… What are you going to do, you can’t make the best in the world angry: it’s preferable to hug him, kiss him and not want to attack you, because if the best one got angry, you don’t have a chance to beat him”Roman pointed out.

“That statement by Van Gaal was good for Argentina: with Messi angry it’s impossible to beat him. Messi, if he gets angry, they won’t expel him, he won’t kick… Messi gets angry in another way, playing ball , and it is the worst thing that can happen to you if you are Leo’s rival”, concluded Riquelme.
