Alberto Zapater Analyzes World Cup Final, Recalls Real Zaragoza Teammate Delio Toledo

Former Real Zaragoza captain Alberto Zapater, encountered by chance in Manhattan by a Paraguayan television crew, provides an analysis of the upcoming World Cup final between Spain and Argentina. Zapater recalls playing with Paraguayan defender Delio Toledo at Zaragoza between 2004 and 2006. In his analysis, Zapater praises Argentina's determination ('huevos') and notes that Spain's key players like Pedri and Lamine Yamal have not yet fully appeared, while Rodri has been outstanding. He highlights Lionel Messi as the best in history, decisive even while playing in MLS, and concludes that Spain cannot beat Argentina at possession play and the match will be very even.
