After Argentina's 3-2 comeback victory over Egypt, Lautaro was interviewed by reporters in the mixed zone.

Reporter: Can you help us understand what happened? What exactly happened in there?

Good afternoon, everyone. It was a very tough match, a match that became very complicated for us, being 0-2 down in the final stages. This team kept fighting, always looking for the opponent's goal. In the first half, we also created many chances but couldn't convert them. But in the second half, especially after conceding the second goal, the team showed incredible fighting spirit, humility, and sacrifice. In the end, we won promotion thanks to our efforts in the final moments of the game.

Reporter: Lautaro, you have spoken about Messi many times, and today he led the team again. How do you explain Leo's leadership?

It's evident in his performance on the field. Everything he shows us day after day, I will keep in my mind. It's incredible, because he is our guide, our role model, our leader. Seeing him run like that today, and then seeing him so excited at the end, I told him on the field to enjoy it, because he deserves it. We will continue to give our all for everyone, especially for him, because this is his last FIFA World Cup, and he has given us so much. Everyone in the locker room was also very emotional just now. It was very difficult, truly very difficult, because facing such opponents at this stage, they made things very tough for us. Coming back from a 0-2 deficit with so little time left is undoubtedly difficult. But as I said before, the team once again showed great fighting spirit, character, and the desire to keep going, to stay in this competition, and to constantly look for the opponent's goal. In the end, this reward is well-deserved.
