The Argentine team had a victory over Egypt in the 1/8 round of the 2026 World Cup at the US stadium on the evening of July 7. Present at the stadium to watch the match, singer Bui Cong Nam had emotional shares in an interview with FPT after the comeback of the Tango team.
The male singer said that this is the first time he has watched a World Cup match live on the stadium and this experience exceeded expectations.
I was the first time to watch a World Cup match of this scale, very happy and very wonderful. I even stood right on the side of the goal where Argentina scored three goals," the male singer said.
However, Bui Cong Nam also humorously said that the experience on the field was still "slightly lacking", because he did not hear the commentator shouting when the goal was scored.
Bui Cong Nam revealed that he has loved Lionel Messi since the early days when the Argentine superstar emerged in Barcelona's colors at Camp Nou.
It must have been almost 20 years. From all the clubs Messi played for, I followed," he said.
According to the male singer, being able to witness Messi play with his own eyes is one of his biggest wishes as a fan.
Assessing Messi's performance, Bui Cong Nam said that the Argentina captain has not had his best match and was once worried that the team would be eliminated when they were led.
I think today Messi's ball feel is not really good. Sometimes I even thought Argentina could go home right away. But in the end the team showed bravery to come back very successfully".
Although still placing his faith in Argentina, Bui Cong Nam believes that the journey ahead will be very difficult if they have to face strong opponents like Spain or France.
I just hope that if he goes to the next round, Messi will practice penalty kicks more carefully. If the next match has penalties again, either someone else kicks, or you have to practice really hard to help me," the male singer humorously shared.
Closing the conversation, the male singer also spontaneously sang a sentence for his idol: "Exchanging thousands of words with the sentence, I love Messi, I love Messi...", expressing special affection for the player he has admired for nearly two decades.
