Marcos ROJO spoke about which of the three finals lost with Argentina hurt the most.

A veteran with the Argentina national team, ROJO played in the three finals in three years. Beginning with the 2014 FIFA World Cup final against Germany and the two Copa America finals against Chile, ROJO commented on them all. Taken from TNT Sports, here’s what he had to say:

“The Copa America we lost in Chile was a bigger hit than the one of the World Cup.

“In Brazil, it was the first final we lost and obviously it hurt but it was also a satisfaction to be able to get to that match. The two Copa America finals we lost hurt us a lot.”

Sergio AGUERO scored for Manchester City in their 4-3 win, 4-4 aggregate defeat to Tottenham.

It was one of the most exciting matches in recent history. Goals and controversy, it had it all. Mauricio POCHETTINO’s men took a 1-0 lead going into the second game and AGUERO’s penalty miss in the defeat proved to be crucial.

With the score at 3-2 for City, the club’s all time leading goal scorer scored to make it 4-2 for the home team. A lovely strike from a difficult angle gave Pep GUARDIOLA some breathing room.

However, there was one more goal to be score. Fernando LLORENTE would make it 4-3 and would send Tottenham throguh to the semi finals. Raheem STERLING would score late in injury time but it would go to VAR and the goal would be disallowed.

AGUERO’s goal also means that he has scored 30+ goals in all competitions in three consecutive seasons for the first time in his career.

“Surely I will be with SCALONI at the Copa America. Surely I will be with them. Hopefully that ends well too, it’s what we all want.”

AIMAR added that he will talk about it with coach Lionel SCALONI and the staff:

“I will talk with them about it to see how we will go about it.”

Another option is could be if Roma receive an offer by a Chinese club although nothing has been submitted.
