In an intense South American World Cup, Argentina won 3-0 away to Bolivia on Wednesday (13th), but this victory has an unusual background. It is reported that the "King" Mez did not play personally, this news, the Argentine media have speculated, is the "King" will cross the border, become Argentina's dual role of coach and player?
According to Argentine media outlet TNT Sport, Mays decided not to participate in the game after communicating in advance with his team leader, Scaloni. Nonetheless, Mez did not choose to leave quietly, but chose to stay with the team and cheer on his teammates. Given FIFA's rules, players who are not listed on the roster are not allowed to be on the bench. In order not to take up a valuable substitute spot, Meis cleverly registered as an assistant coach of the Argentina national team, wearing a coach's uniform, legally complying with the law and sitting on the bench, witnessing the entire game.
