Special Envoy of the Observer in Doha, Qatar
The story was told on the popular Jero Freixas YouTube channel and later written by the ABC newspaper. A young woman who was going to finish her training would receive her diploma this November 26 at noon in Argentina, coinciding with the Argentina game against Mexico. Her father, though it cost him, had no doubts about what he preferred to see. “I love you to infinity and something else, I swear. I can take out a kidney and give it to you if you ask me. Not this, don’t ask me this. I beg you please I love you with everything, I’ll go to the gala, I’ll go wherever you want, but this… I didn’t even go to receive my diploma from the University, you can ask grandfather. And I’m going to talk to the school, they can only be crazy to put it up right now. Let them change, ”he shot. This is the Argentine people.
This is a country that had a God named Maradona and a Messiah named Lionel. However, football is a religion for them, not for them. That is what gives any of the most decisive matches in Argentina that last-in-a-lifetime character, like the most important in history. Next, it is to enter the carousel. Until the initial whistle, there is no one like them, capable of giving what they have and what they don’t have to see what they most want to have. From there, there is despair, there is sadness, there is courage, there is hope, there is fear. There is a bit of everything like what happened with Mexico until the inevitable number 10 shirt rescued all of Argentina from another nervous breakdown. In that goal, Pablo Aimar, today an assistant, had tears in his eyes. Then, in Enzo Fernández’s 2-0, it was Scaloni’s turn to cry. This is the Argentine team.
It is in the symbiosis of both that one sees the reflection of what 11 can do on the field for millions outside it and what the thousands present in Doha can do for 11. This time, contrary to what happened with Saudi Arabia, it went right And the mixed zone itself was also different (in Mexico almost no one spoke).
