Reflection on Argentina's Unexpected Defeat to Spain
16 days have passed since the conclusion of the World Cup held in the United States, CANADA and MEXICO. In which 48 teams participated in a format of 12 groups.
The hope of an entire nation was placed on a football team led by Lionel Scaloni, a coach who gave them a superior game identity, raised their prestige by placing the national team at the highest level of world football. His humility as a person managed to form a work group that understood the objective they had to achieve, all this accompanied by a luxurious captain “Lionel Messi” the best player in the world¡¡ and ten gladiators on the field who made it possible for the team to reach the World Cup final for a second consecutive time.
The president of the Argentine Football Association (AFA) Claudio Chiqui Tapia, is under investigation by justice for; retention of pension contributions, embezzlement of taxes and social security resources retained from employees and clubs without being deposited, links with offshore finance and money laundering and international business and external lawsuits.
After the defeat against Spain various hypotheses were conjectured; an international conspiracy against the Argentine team, it was said that it was a racist football squad, there was an internal discussion in the dressing room. What we all Argentinians saw when the national team played was a group led on the field by their captain who motivated and encouraged his teammates to win. We were thrilled to see that competitive spirit with which they went out to face the matches, in fact international press often reflected that solidity as a team.
Their technical staff and all players demonstrated to Argentinians that effort, sacrifice, camaraderie, honesty, and humility are possible. It contrasts with what represents the president of Argentine football, a totally dishonest person, corrupted by corruption, who should do best is resign and settle his affairs with justice, you can't mix oil and water. “Divine justice” acted accordingly in the final between Spain and Argentina. The rotten apple contaminated the whole barrel. There's an old saying that says, “tell me with whom you walk and I will tell you who you are” for Chiqui Tapia, “tell me who defends you and I will tell you where you come from”.
