Argentine President Alberto Fernandez said he would not watch the 2022 World Cup final between his country's national team against France in person in Qatar.

Unlike the President of France, Emmanuel Macron will be present at the Lusail Stadium to support his country. Alberto Fernandez will instead support Lionel Messi and his teammates from home.

"Like millions of my compatriots, I will enjoy the World Cup final at home," he said on Sunday on Twitter, as quoted by Antara via AFP on Sunday.

"I will undergo this fantastic moment as I have experienced until now, together with the Argentine people," he said.

"Our best players will be on the pitch and our great fans in the stands."

Fernandez himself is a big fan of the Argentinos Juniors club, the team from football legend Diego Maradona.

French President Emmanuel Macron was previously present when Les Blues won in the semifinals against Morocco on Wednesday (14/12).
