      you and everyone else.

      Some info from the southern hemisphere : Argentinians have such gigantic egos that one of their challenges to other south americans is “¿Cuantas copas tenes?” which translates to “How many (world) cups do you have?”.

      They are on the same continent as brazil. THE TEAM THAT HAS THE MOST FOOTBALL WORLD CUPS IN THE WORLD.

      Denying them their fourth is fantastic. Even better, Milei can’t use this to bolster patriotism as people keep living in the realities of argentina.

      Although I’m pretty certain that he is going to enjoy busting out the militarised cops for the inevitable riot in buenos aires. I’d shed a tear for the poor Fast Food establishment they keep burning to the ground, but fuck them yankee burgers.

    After Argentina’s disgraceful, imperialist sign and knowing the piece of shit they put in office: good, fuck 'em.

    Watching it on SBS in Australia, during the trophy lift i saw that orange fuck trying to stand next to the team, and after the shot one of the commentators said “they just just edit him out”, lol.

    And they did! Every shot of the trophy lift afterwards during the telecast it was just Spain. Good shit SBS!

        Oh man, mods should probably step in but boy am I glad they didn’t. It’s so obviously going over like a damp fart in a small car, but they’re so spirited in trying to maintain the illusion that it’s not. The sheer quantity of stubborn yet performative ignorance would almost be admirable (if, you know, they weren’t a racist stooge). Absolutely wonderful to see someone who completely deserves it getting obliterated that hard, I really needed that today.

    I’m glad it was Spain that did it to them. Eff you, Argentinian fans. You’re awful racist shits.

        They were caught singing racist songs against French players after they won Copa America a couple years ago.

        Why they did it when France didn’t compete in the tournament (for obvious reasons), we will never know.

    Can’t wait for Trumpy Wumpy to give the cup to Spain after consistently trying to sanction it.

    I was hoping Messi would win to end his career like that, but I’m also not upset that Spain won either. That goal was crazy awesome.

    Spain play is just in an another league… it’s a miracle we made it this far and also, that we managed to mantain the counter at 0-0 for so much time.

    Well done spain.

    And what a goal. The third goal to be counted (during 1st there was a foul and 2nd was off side by like 5cm). Header from Williams Jr. and good shot from Ferran.
