World Cup 2022
A charter flight from Qatar to Argentina that was seven hours late due to excessive celebrations by the world champions, an aborted World Cup party in Buenos Aires with several accidents and an Argentine goalkeeper who mocked France star Kylian Mbappé with various gestures. The winning team of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar will not only remain in the memory of many because of their footballing performance.
Toni and Felix Kroos also spoke about this in their podcast “Einfach mal Luppen”. The World Cup final was a few days ago and the two had already discussed it in detail in their World Cup show “Luppen-TV” on the pay-TV channel Magenta TV – the Kroos left a final conclusion before the Christmas break of their podcast – Brothers still do not take.

The two also referred to the sprawling celebrations of the Argentines after winning the World Cup final. Former international and now Real Madrid star Toni Kroos dealt well with winners Argentina.
During the broadcast of the final, Toni Kroos still relied on Argentina
Having seen the “best World Cup of all time”, as Fifa boss Gianni Infantino emphasized, cannot be underlined, said Felix Kroos. There would have been too little football atmosphere and too many political issues that would have distracted. “But then they were all gone. They left with Germany.”interjected Toni Kroos with a laugh.
However, what he saw, his brother continued, was probably the best World Cup final ever. Toni Kroos explained that it was rarely seen at the World Cup that both teams wanted to play football.

During the broadcast of the final, Toni Kroos did not show any antipathy towards a team. But he made it pretty clear in the podcast what he thinks of the winning team and what the winning party in Argentina has to do with it.
Toni Kroos with tough words against Argentina after World Cup parry
“We’re left with Argentina with a deserved winner, right?” Felix Kroos concluded the two brothers’ short World Cup final conclusion. But Toni Kroos followed suit:
“Yes, definitely, even if I still don’t like them. They just proved that again at the celebrations, with several actions that you saw somewhere. That doesn’t necessarily make them more likeable for me. I liked them not before that. Which doesn’t mean that I don’t recognize the sporting achievement.”
The final was also of the quality because Argentina played an almost perfect game for more than 80 minutes, while France “almost didn’t happen at all”. “They were the better team in the tournament, I’m happy to acknowledge that. That doesn’t mean you have to like them.” However, the behavior in the event of victory underlined that he still does not like her, emphasized Kroos.
In his weekly column, fan researcher Harald Lange writes exclusively on watson about the things that are currently moving football in Germany.
In Argentina, the football world is fine. Lionel Messi leads the team to third World Cup title. President Alberto Fernández spontaneously proclaimed a national holiday and fans celebrated in the streets of Buenos Aires for days. Most recently it should have been over five million. Roads were congested, cell phone networks were overloaded and the World Cup heroes had to transfer from open-top buses to helicopters to get a bird’s-eye view of the cheering crowds.
