At Buenos Aires’ Monumental, the organisation surrounding the match left Gernot Rohr dissatisfied after his African team’s meeting with Argentina. The veteran coach felt his players were denied the chance to approach Lionel Messi, known across the game as La Pulga.
Rohr raised his objection after the fixture, directing his frustration at the arrangements rather than the action on the pitch. His complaint centred on the restricted access to Messi for members of his squad during the occasion at River Plate’s stadium.
