Double world figure skating champion, double Olympic silver medalist Eugenie Medvedeva said in a interview that she supports the national team Argentina in the final of the 2022 FIFA World Cup and for its leader Lionel Messi.
The Argentina national team beat the France team on penalties in the 2022 World Cup final in Qatar.
– I read that you follow the World Cup a bit. Were there any preferences?
– At that time I had several trips, a lot of work, filming. Therefore, I didn’t have time to sit and watch the games here. I just followed the score. But if we talk specifically about the final, then everything is trivial here – like the whole world, I was supporting Leo Messi and Argentina. Still, it’s great when a cherished goal is achieved, especially at the end of a career. It’s nice!
– And so globally. Are you for Messi or for Cristiano Ronaldo?
– Concretely, in the World Cup final, I supported Messi, but overall I did not make such a choice. From an athlete’s perspective, I think that’s not quite right. Both have made a huge contribution to their sport, both have attracted a lot of people to football with their work, both are handsome. So I am for both,” Medvedeva told .
