Benin will fact Argentina on Tuesday night in Lionel Messi’s final game for La Albiceleste, and center back Mohamed Tijani hilariously revealed his team’s strategy entering the game: none. There was nothing to be done to prepare for the likes of Messi, who he described as “God.”
Tijani and the rest of Benin’s squad were caught by Argentine media shopping around the streets of Buenos Aires. After showing off the Albiceleste-themed yerba mate cup he bought for his kids, Tijani spoke about Messi’s farewell match in a comedically blunt interview with outlet C5N.
