00:00And Diego, well, was like an identity of Argentinian football.
00:06After me, Diego came, another time champion.
00:11Lausa Messi, another time champion.
00:14And so it stayed.
00:16And it was said at one point in Argentina, let's get the number 10.
00:21But for whom?
00:23Yes, yes, yes, it's the most beautiful number there can be.
00:27Everyone is beautiful without playing, that's clear.
00:30But the number 10, to identify yourself with that player,
00:33I don't know if it's different, but at least they see you as different.
00:38And I didn't make the big difference to say,
00:43well, give me the number 10 because I'm the boss here, I'm the captain.
00:48No, no.
00:49I mean, it takes you.
00:52It takes you to do things that maybe you wouldn't dare to do at another time.
00:57And well, we were very lucky to have three left-backs, three champions.
