“We would never have imagined, including my staff, that we would be in this place.
“In order to continue you need a great deal of things, especially resetting your mind, rebooting, creating a group like this again. That is very difficult to create again.”
The 48-year-old former player said that it is unlikely that the group of players he coached will ever come together again and also praised Lionel Messi’s impact throughout the tournament.
Scaloni said; “It’s very unlikely a group as wonderful as this will ever come together again, and that hurts me deeply.
“What Messi did at this World Cup is incredible.
“I hope people are proud of Leo. He’s the greatest footballer to have ever stepped onto a pitch.”
