Albi Celeste reached a goalless draw against Brazil this morning and qualified for the Qatar World Cup. But it was at the end of the match that Lionel Messi appeared in front of reporters and while talking about his physical condition, he claimed that he hoped that Argentina's promotion to the 2022 World Cup would be finalized very soon. Meanwhile, the match between Argentina and Brazil ended when Albi Celeste's promotion to the World Cup was finalized.
The Argentine national team and Lionel Messi only thought about the possibility of promotion if they won and achieved a few unexpected results in other games, but strange results happened so that Albi Celeste's departure to the World Cup in Qatar would be earlier than expected. Uruguay lost 3-0 to Bolivia at La Paz, and Colombia and Paraguay also agreed to a goalless draw to secure Argentina's early promotion to the World Cup.
Finally, Lionel Messi and other Argentine players in the locker room realized that the team's ascent was also confirmed on paper and it was time to celebrate. Unlike the previous season, when the team experienced difficult conditions to qualify for the World Cup, this season Lionel Scaloni's team soon booked a ticket to the Qatar tournament.
