“The Copa America is over and the first thing I want is to thank everyone for the messages and the greetings. I am well, thank God and hopefully I can be back on the pitch again enjoying what I love doing most.
“I’m very happy, especially because we achieved the goal we had and Fideo (Ángel Di María) leaves us but with another Cup. The eldest ones, like him, Ota or myself, we live it with special excitement, with other team mates who already have several tournaments and add their experience as well. And with a little of young people who give their all in every ball. We are a team and also a family, a spectacular group.
“Thanks to everyone who was supporting us, this national team has a lot of present and a lot of future too. Let’s go Argentina!”
