the World Cup by losing to Saudi Arabia, one of the least fancied teams in the tournament. Argentina’s footballers ended it as champions, beating France, the holders, in a penalty shoot-out after a thrilling 3-3 draw. When Gonzalo Montiel drove home the decisive spot-kick, millions of Argentines streamed onto Avenida 9 de Julio, in the centre of Buenos Aires, setting off firecrackers, chanting songs, and honking car horns.
Argentina’s fans had already made this World Cup one about their country and its captain. Some 50,000 Argentine supporters descended on Doha for the final, compared with only 10,000 from France, a far richer, more populous country. Argentine, or fans, have a reputation for rambunctiousness.
Football and national identity became intertwined after Argentina beat England in the 1986 World Cup quarter-final in Mexico, in which Maradona scored two goals, one famed for its beauty and the other—a handball not spotted by the referee—for vexing a generation of English fans. Coming on the heels of Argentina’s humiliating defeat after invading the Falkland Islands, a British territory in the South Atlantic, it felt to many like a moment of national vindication.
Its caller corruption in high level !
I am sorry to see that again, one of the tribe is flaunting the Illuminati / Cabal symbols. Hate that stuff !
Midfielder?!?
There’s nothing to rejoice if others are in pain from starving, pain from wars making them more miserable. I can’t even smile.
'Their star midfielder'. A bit of an understatement,
The economist la concha de tu madre
You economists! Were you guys drawing a scale of preference before choosing when to tweet Argentina won the World cup. Presto! It happened 2 days ago
Are you all just about waking up? 🤔
As you said before, in 1978 Argentina junta threw protesters from the helicopters for the World Cup. Maybe it’s the so-called football religion.😬

Yes. Always sneak in uncalled handballs and take dives in your quarter or semi final matches.
