'Chile didn't let us go to the bathroom!' - Argentina's De Paul angry at World Cup qualifying treatment
Rodrigo De Paul has said Chile mistreated Argentina during their trip to Calama on Thursday for a World Cup qualifying match.
The midfielder alleged that the hosts didn't let his team use the bathroom when they departed their plane among other complaints and said Argentina would never handle an opponent in that fashion.
Still, Argentina emerged with a 2-1 victory through goals from Angel Di Maria and Lautaro Martinez. They're in second place in CONMEBOL and have already booked a place at the 2022 World Cup.
"They didn't even let us go to the bathroom when we got off the plane," De Paul told reporters. "They cut off our air conditioners, we had no water and they made sirens sound throughout the stay.
"I'm not saying it's right or wrong , but, as an Argentine, every team that comes to my country, we have to make them feel as comfortable as possible and we have to win on the playing field where it belongs."
Argentina won anyway
