Gosh, yep, I don’t know what to say. His mom rode him on her bike, every day? Wow. What a mom

true bro

For me, Di Maria is the key player in that World Cup final match 2022, he's the reason he led to the 1st penalty goal and scored the 2nd one after. Mbappe only scored after Di Maria was switched out. For the record, I don't deny Messi's and Mbappe's talents and their roles in the World Cup or whatsoever, I just want to point out how important Di Maria was in that Final match of World Cup 2022.

damn when i saw that moment it, made me tear up as well

I cried with him

Exactly, Argentina was dominating in first half was because of Di Maria. As soon as Di Maria was taken off the pitch the game went haywire. Di Maria and Messi duo is the best.

Di maria has long proven himself imo, the problem was that he never got the credit he deserved like at madrid

@@AfridiBDthat’s what’s I’m saying!!! Like why put in Acuña dude kept fucking up, at least let Dybala take his place.

He scored only goal in copa America as well he is important player

Euo n

Unpopular opinion he is better than cr7 but injury sucks

@@lionelmessi1085 👍 agreed. Dimaria is fabulous 👌

Magnificent player.

@@lionelmessi1085 Yes it is unpopular opinion, even to me, a life-long Argentina supporter. Di Maria's dribbling is as par, if not better than Cr7, but cr7 is better in everything else. Btw, I can't stand cr7 even though I recognize him as one of the all time greats.

@@only4anindya sadly, CR7 forced himself too much to play striker role. With his experience and smart play, he could shine as winger in WC 2022. All CR7 needed was 60 minutes of action and he could rest after that like di Maria. Sadly, maybe the managers, MU and Portugal, or even CR7 himself didnt see winger as option for CR7.

Yeap very hardworking . ....they press very hard from the front line and track back heavily

Imo also muller

Muller and Rakitic too

Muy petulante el fideo... extraño para una persona que creció siendo pobre de convirtió en alguien tan arrogante... su fútbol nunca fue de élite... definitivamente el real Madrid hizo lo mejor al deshacerse de ese jugador.

@Stay reserva?

His hamstring was injured

Scaloni had no choice but to replace him, Di Maria himself wouldn't ask for a sub even if his leg was hurting him, it had to be done otherwise his injuries might have been way more severe. Lionel Scaloni is an excelent coach

@@san24k ohhhhhhhhh.

Pedro is criminally underated

When the coach substituted him and brought Acuna in, I was so mad........I almost smashed my TV in anger. If Argentina had lost it would've been because of that error and short sightedness of the coach.

Thats a bit of a overstatement tbh

Subbing him shocked me too. He was causing FRA a lot of problems on the left flank.

I'm argentinian and I understand why they changed him. I absolutely loved his performance and he was my favorite player in all of the cup, but looking at the small amount of time he played each game I arrived at 2 conclusions: 1. His playstyle is so active he cannot mantain it for the whole game 2. I think he hurt himself in the progress: We all know he is one of our best players, but it was weird that unexpectedly he stopped playing even in the important games: In quarters he only came into playing in min 110 (and made 6 courners in those 10 minutes) It was an absolute pleasure watching him play at the finals, but at that rythim is imposible for him at that age to maintain that playstyle for long, even if it's even magical

He was injured at the time brother, that's why he had to leave the field, he just couldn't keep up anymore.

@@chen10costarica78 cry more

@@chen10costarica78 Talking Shite Pal!🤣

Winners never quit and quitters never win. Di Maria ‘s humble beginnings and never give in mentality as many of the greats ,is what seperates the great ones.

@@chen10costarica78atleast this noodles got balls against other players unlike push over Neymar, won’t stand up to a player but will to a random fan. Pathetic the both of you. Good day.

he's the argentinian drogba

Yes yes yes....Argentina would not have made it without him

True everyone talk about pessi😤 because everyone gets red card except him😆 that's the reason that everyone talks about pessi nothing else 🤣🥲💩

G no need to disrespect Messi 🤦🏾‍♂️

@@teezus2036 I'm not disrespecting messi I wouldn't be saying anything if messi scored in the final instead of di maria, messi didn't singlehandedly win the final you know

Muy petulante el fideo... extraño para una persona que creció siendo pobre de convirtió en alguien tan arrogante... su fútbol nunca fue de élite... definitivamente el real Madrid hizo lo mejor al deshacerse de ese jugador.

Don't forget him getting tackled was what led to the penalty for the first goal.

Even more so that Argentina would’ve won a cruising 3-0 if he wasn’t subbed. He had 3 people defending around him while he was in and once subbed, the rest moved up to help the attack

@Biscuit man Do research before you speak, he was having fitness issues all tournament.

@@oreos922 I already he was a bit hurt but not that bad hes literally asked to play a tournament before saying hell take pain killers and doesnt care if his muscle tears for good

Y’all arguing like hell

Now they r in final 🥺

And again di Maria was the best player on the field when he was in

100 💯 3 most important goals for Argentina was made by DI MARIA!!! 2008 2021 2022 YOU ARE A WORLD CUP CHAMPION MR DI MARIA!!!!! 🎆🎆🎆🏆🏆🏆🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷⚽️

@@islandkid4394 Subbing out Di Maria was the biggest mistake Scaloni made. It was immediately after his sub that France started to get their grip back on the game. Di Maria was literally running circles around the French defense.

@@spinyslasher6586he was gassed and he wouldn’t keep up with the pace of the French subs that came on later

And he has copa America and world cup

Wait, did you just say obscure place in the world?? Argentina es una potencia en fútbol, anyone who loves this sport know this very well.

Yeah

In Spanish It doesn’t work like that, sadly. “Nunca lograras nada” means exactly that.

That's because he's no longer the 90 min player but 60 min. Di Maria' s biggest drawback was he didn't bulk up, thus had injuries for his lean frame & couldn't hit power shots. Had he done so then he would be better than Lewandowski

@@darthkothicame7822 I would agree with you tht hez now a 60 mins player but on this final he was giving it his all and was only substituted because of the preconceived perception of him not his actual performance of the day. He could have finished the game

@@darthkothicame7822 for me he is already ahead of lewa. See his real madrid days, and in finals. He has a World Cup title, a UCL title, Copa America title, finalissima and is overall better

no hate towards lewan, but bro did you even see how di Maria wrecked the entire French midfield? For me he's already better despite him and lewan playing two different roles

Absolutely

@@tjfootball1908 I will!!

@@fabiocaroca5495 thanks bro

He was trash

Till he married his cousin

They even had the chance to sign him this year and have a last dance with him, but chose not to for some reason

I hope he does, Benfica literally made him a magician but players will always go to bigger clubs which of course he should. but, I really hope he comes back to Benfica it would help the club so much and the fans would love him back Im sure

@@chen10costarica78 Eso es extremadamente grosero. Di María fue llamado serpiente y 'arrogante', pero ¿por qué? ¿Qué hizo él? ¡dime! Es extremadamente humilde y una persona con los pies en la tierra. De hecho, tuve una conversación con él cuando firmó mi camiseta después de un partido amistoso contra un equipo local en mi área. No es nada arrogante si lo conocieras pensarías diferente. I used google translate lmao so idk if the spanish is correct as I dont speak it.

@@matty.1899 .. well... you're right i do not him personally.. when he came with the argentina nacional teen.. he not even soy hello to the people and closed the windows curtain of the bus... maybe he just was having a bad day... in the other thing... he never had the level to be a super star... not enough level for RM. By the way I translate myself.. just trying to improve my English.

@@chen10costarica78 You Serious?? Won Copa Del Rey; MOTM for La Decima; topped the league in Assists; Assist/game ratio in Spain second to only Ozil. Aw, Shuddup!!! Obviously You Don't Know Football! IDI!😎

I always think what would had happened had DiMaria not be injured against Germany. I think the outcome would have been difference between Argentina vs Germany

@@JG-mg3if me too

Di Maria is above this group, he played consistently well. Haven't seen Hulk or Cavani have the vision to where to break the defence, something Di Maria always could get to

@@darthkothicame7822 Cavani is more of a complete Finisher than winger or someone having vision so his game is completely different from Di Maria. As for Hulk, he was known for his Physique, Power and Pace which just made him penetrate the flanks and take long shots which is also completely different from Di Maria's playstyle so the comparison doesn't make sense. But sure I accept that Di Maria has been consistently playing on top level for the past decade and a half

It's literally from an interview of Di Maria himself, never said he worked in a mine. Just the mining industry, packing coal is part of the mining industry, even if not necessarily in a mine

exactly, it's a honest mistake but greatly exaggerates the story with the miners footage

Kaun didn’t anything speacial for Argentina
