On July 19, in the local time of July 20, Argentine forward Paulo Dybala is set to marry his long-time girlfriend, Oriana Sabatini. The wedding is reported to have invited teammates from the Argentine national team such as Di Maria, Enzo Fernández, Romero, and De Paul. Before the wedding, Dybala and his fiancée recorded a dialogue program, where they had an “honest talk,” discussing scenes from the 2022 FIFA World Cup final.
“There was a particular moment that went unnoticed because it happened so quickly, when France tied us 3-3 and we entered a penalty shootout; my world crumbled almost to the point of tearing apart. Because in sports, in football, in these situations, you enter a penalty shootout and lose the game.” Dybala opened up to his fiancée, “It was like telling me ‘all this is happening because we are meant to fail.’ Otherwise, the match would have ended 3-2.”
“After winning the World Cup, I played another very important final with AS Roma, but we lost. That defeat almost killed me, I couldn’t take it anymore. I wanted to go home, didn’t want to go out. Losing that final hit me hard, because I knew it would have been a historic achievement for us, just like winning the World Cup. I knew how unique it would have been for the people of Rome, something unprecedented in their entire history.” When talking about losing the 2023 Europa League final on penalties to Sevilla, Dybala experienced the pain of a penalty shootout once again.
