A message: Changes to Mundo Albiceleste, reduced ads, new design

1

Hello everyone,

Since the start of the new year, we have been experimenting with different ads and locations across the Mundo Albiceleste website. And if we are being completely honest, it was time for a permanent change.

We have also been hearing and reading all of your feedbacks and are happy to announce what we believe are significant changes. The number of ads on the website have been reduced (we believe significantly) and ultimately, while the ads do help in keeping up with the maintenance of the website, we still want every one to enjoy viewing and reading the content.

Mundo Albiceleste was built by Argentina fans and for Argentina fans, which is why we believe that should remain the priority and will remain the priority.

Should you have any comments or suggestions, please, do let us know in the comments below or email us at mundoalbiceleste10@gmail.com. Our aim is to continue to improve and to provide more content (which we will continue to be doing and will be introducing new sections throughout the year) than we ever have before. And to aim for quality over quantity.

As always, your feedback is strongly appreciated. Mundo Albiceleste has been around since 2006 and we would not be where we are without the Mundo Albiceleste family.

Thank you,

Valentín Barco has spoken about being with the Argentina national team.

Barco scored his first goal with the Argentina national team in their 5-0 win against Zambia. Speaking to the media after the match, Barco commented on Joaquín Panichelli’s injury and being part of the Argentina national team. Here is what he had to say:

“I live day by day, like I always have. I try to do my best at my club in order to come here. The world champions are here, they are all elite. It is the best national team in the world and it has the most difficult list in the world, logically.

“I am very thankful to the people and my team mates, scoring at home, my first goal with the senior national team is something unique.

“I had everyone sign the jersey for me, that one’s going in the memory book and the collection.”

Barco and Panichelli are team mates at Strasbourg and with the Argentina national team. The two were with the Argentina national team when Panichelli injured his ACL and he is out of the World Cup for Argentina.

Following Argentina’s 5-0 win against Zambia, Barco, who scored in the match, spoke about Panichelli’s injury. Here is what he had to say:

“The injury was difficult, it was a very, very, difficult moment for everyone. I was next to him and it was the most difficult moment I have lived. I am very sad for him because I know everything that he has worked for every day to be here. Now, I will be there for his recovery.”
