I saw the banner and thought, here they go again.
I want to admire the skills of Messi, applaud Argentinas never-say-die attitude, marvel at their resilience but my God this Argentina team are some of the most classless bunch of fuckers to play the game.
In 2022, just to name a few:
- Martinez shithousery with the penalties in the final, even seemingly thrusting his bits into Mbappe's face as he bent down to pick up the ball for a penalty.
- Romero celebrating right in French players face. I mean literally going face to face mocking them.
' The victory bus parade where Martinez mocked Mbappe with a toy doll.
And the squad later singing racist songs about the French team in a tournament where France were not even playing. (The obsession with the French is weird).
In 2026, all those VAR decisions, the Swiss sending off, disallowed goal and then three Argentina players hold up this banner - two of whom play in England.
Thoroughly unlikeable.
I hope Spain crush them but Argentina will probably win 2 1, Spain having 2 goals disallowed because someone farted in Messi's direction.
The Argentina team will probably laugh in the face of the Spanish players and then sing a song about Yamal really being Morrocan and unfit to tie Messi's shoelaces.
