“With Luka we were watching it. He was there, who encouraged Mexico, he encouraged Argentina, there to make a little joke on me. There are many players who are following the World Cup. We have from Australia, people from France, Germany quite a couple, so we watch the parties”, commented.
Subsequently, Campazzo said to questions from other media that “The first games are the most difficult, because you are nervous, anxious.”
