Di Maria: It was worth it that I cried so much, I expected it to be easier

With him on the pitch for 64 minutes, France were in total panic every time they touched the ball, as Angel di Maria did it all: won the penalty and then scored the second goal, making the game look close at half-time first.

And maybe Lionel Scaloni was wrong with the quick substitution, after seeing the defensive "Angel" on the field, they saw themselves recovering and scared until the end. Angel is an expert in the finals, he is even the only person who has been able to do more than Lionel Messi with the national team of Argentina, therefore he deserves a place alongside "Pleshti" and it is not an exaggeration at all. The reason is that Di Maria, like Messi and Batistuta are the only ones who have scored in three consecutive World Cups, but above all, Angel is the only one who has scored in 4 different finals and every time he scores he gives the trophy to Argentina.

Diçka e tillë ka ndodhur në Olimpiadën e vitit 2008, kur falë golit të tij fituan Medaljen e Artë përballë Nigerisë, me Mesin që adhuronte “El Fideon”. Më pas vjen edhe trofeu i parë i rëndësishëm, Kupa e Amerikës, që duket se thyen mallkimin e Mesit, me Di Marian që në tokën braziliane gjunjëzon të zotët e shtëpisë, ndonëse në fund sërish duket sikur meritat i shkojnë Mesit…

Por nuk mbaron këtu, pasi në edicionin e parë të finales ndërkontinentale, “Finalissima”, ajo mes Argjentinës kampione të Amerikës së Jugut dhe Italisë kampione të Europës, ai i dërgon shifrat në 2-0 në fundin e pjesës së parë duke futur në kasafortë trofeun. Dhe kryevepra ishte dje, ndaj Francës, ndonëse pavarësisht golit të dytë të tij, Angel di Maria ishte lojtari që e vuajti më shumë finalen, pasi në çdo moment që fokusohej nga kamera, ai e përjetoi ndeshjen të gjithën në lot.

"But it was worth it, even though I don't know how much more I could endure," says the Juventus star again with tears in his eyes. – I don't want to say anything, I don't want to talk, because I'm more than excited and I just want to celebrate. I want you to laugh a little right now, because I still can't believe what we did. My goal? I thought of other things at that moment, I thought we would have had it easier. But the important thing in the end is that we succeeded", said the man of the finals.
