Following the victory, Fernandez took to Instagram to celebrate the achievement and thanked Argentine supporters for their backing.

“ALL THE GLORY TO GOD. Argentinos this is for you, we all wanted to win this match and we made history again. Enjoy the classics being won. This group is in a new end, we are going for everything together again. See you in New York,” Fernandez wrote.
