— I said before the start of the World Cup that Argentina is the favorite to win. I was always asked for the intermediate leaders, I always talked about Argentina, even after their defeat to Saudi Arabia. I was convinced that they would definitely reach the finals.

Messi is very difficult to play against. He deservedly won the tournament. Messi has achieved everything in football, he is the best football player on the planet. And now he is enjoying himself. I know what a victory is for the country. And how he played! The whole world saw it, said Robert Lewandowski.

Let's add that at the 2022 World Cup, the Argentine national team and the Polish national team played in the same group, the Albiceleste won with a score of 2:0.
