“We had a great performance, we created chances, but we also had silly mistakes in defense,” he began, while praising the performance of Lionel Messi: “He is so good that he continues to make good plays. I think the two passes he gave in the two goals are world class”.

But the issue did not stop there. Annoyed with the attitude of the Albiceleste team, Marsch declared that “Argentina should be fined”and demanded: “Write that down. They should have a fine for leaving twenty minutes late in the second half”.

“When they were late, I knew they were watching the video and analyzing how they wanted to play against us. I wish the referees could manage that. If we arrived five minutes late, we would have a fine and there would be a big problem,” he added to his complaint.
Visibly upset, he continued: “How long did it take them? Twenty minutes? Thirty minutes? They had time to prepare how they would play against us in the second half. If we had known we had ten more minutes, we would have prepared better. Beyond that, I made sure my players knew that they were going to come up with a new plan.”
Finally, he was also upset with the Venezuelan referee Jesús Valenzuela who, in his opinion, did not have the same criteria when signaling fouls.
