The fact that Catalan football is so recognizable in the call-ups, lineups, and playing style of the Spanish national team has made our absence from the World Cup with the Catalan team even harder. What a great role we would have played (as also happens in the Olympic Games), and instead, on Sunday we will once again offer new footballing glories to Spain, which, if you ask me for a prediction, I believe will be golden glories.Argentina has Messi, which is the best thing that could have happened to them, because he brings intelligence, technique, and composure to the emotional chaos of an Argentina that has played every match arriving late and desperately, as if they had a date with destiny rather than with their opponent, and those in charge of letting it pass couldn't find their name on the list of qualifiers, until finally they discover that victory was written. And where Scaloni's tactics don't reach, the supernatural reinforcements of God begin, the hand of God and his footballing son on Earth, Diego Armando Maradona, accompanied by Victor Hugo Morales' narration "¿de qué planeta viniste?”. Messi, moreover, brings a purpose to an entire team that loves him, which is to help him expand his legend and make him world champion again and a contender for a ninth Ballon d'Or, at 39 years old.And, after all, if anyone can bring Argentina down from this religious madness with which they have reached the final, it is Spain, with their rational, solid, and knowledgeable football, where everyone knows what they have to do and does it like champions. The World Cup of Cubarsí and Olmo has been impressive. The whole world has once again looked at the photo by Joan Monfort and Oriol Canals for Sport" with Lamine Yamal in the little tub, where Messi seems to be imposing his hands on him. It is the triumph of La Masia, from which the two stars of the championship have emerged. We already have this, and it is a lot.
