“I am very happy. The joy of being world champion is something that we enjoy every day and to see how the people are is something very special.

“It’s crazy what people are doing, what happened with Leo the other day at the restaurant… The people are very happy and we have to enjoy it. Let’s hope that tomorrow will be a beautiful day, that people come in calmly and that it’s a nice celebration, that nothing serious will happen.

“Every time I come here, it’s a great joy. Every moment fills your heart, it is the most beautiful place you can be in.

“The first thing is to win tomorrow and to continue on the same path. One stage is over and now we have the World Cup qualifiers and after that the Copa America, which is what we are aiming at.”
