“Infinite thanks captain… to you, the team and the coaching staff, for the enormous joy that they have given to the Argentine people. And a special greeting after his Maradonian “go there fool”, with which he definitely won the hearts of the Argentines, “wrote Férnandez de Kirchner on her Twitter account.

And I add: “Ah… I almost forgot! Thank you very much also for bringing the third cup to the Homeland.”
The Argentine national team became world champion for the third time in history by beating France 4-2 on penalties tonight in the Qatar 2022 final after equalizing 3-3 in the regular 90 minutes and the extra 30.
