La albeiceste

Angel Di Maria: If Lionel Messi is the brains behind this Argentina powerhouse then Angel Di Maria is the heart. ‘Fideo’ is one of the best players to don the Argentine shirt and he has worn it proudly through his long and illustrious career.

Monday’s Copa America final was Di Mara’s final game for La Albeiceste and he could not have asked for a better ending with the forward even claiming that the perfect ending ‘ was written.’

"It was written, it was this way. I dreamt that we would win this Copa América and that I was going to retire this way. I have so many beautiful feelings that I can't get into. I am eternally grateful to this generation that made me achieve what I sought so much," said Ángel in the post-match interview.
