The Argentine team won another victory -and title- that generated even more enthusiasm and optimism for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. With goals from Lautaro Martínez, Ángel Di María and Paulo Dybala, they won 3-0 against Italy (current champion of Europe) in the Finalissima.
Despite more than 11 thousand kilometers away, the public albiceleste managed to fill the capacity of the mythical Wembley Stadium to encourage the team and see a new function of the Scaloneta in situ, a squad that boasts an important undefeated 32 games, which allowed them to become champions of the Americas at the Maracana, defeating Brazil in the final and achieving qualification for the World Cup in the South American Qualifiers without any mishaps.

The imposing frame surprised the Italian press, something that was evident during the transmission of the RAI network, one of the most important in Europe. The rapporteur was silent so that the songs of the supporters of Argentina could be heard and then he outlined: “Wembley looks like the Bombonera of Buenos Aires.” “It is accompanied by a large number of Argentines,” he added.
At 83 minutes of the game the public was excited and intoned:“Come, come. Sing with me, that you will find a friend. That hand in hand, with Leo Messi, we are all going to turn around”. The video quickly became viral on social networks.
One of those who did not miss the opportunity to emphasize the support they received during the final against the Azzurra it was precisely the Flea, the captain of the team. “It was a beautiful final. What we live here, the people, full of Argentines. We knew it was going to be a nice game, a nice setting to be champions and luckily it happened to us”, commented the number 30 of Paris Saint Germain. According to the authorities, 87,112 spectators said they were present at Wembley.
“This group is growing more and more. It’s match by match. We had 10 very good days, but we have to keep improving what we already have. This group is prepared to achieve important things, we are here to fight anyone. Quietly, this could be a World Cup quarter-final or semi-final match, because Italy is a great team”, Messi remarked. The next match for the National Team will be on Sunday, from 3:00 p.m., against Estonia at Osasuna’s home, the El Sadar stadium in Pamplona.
It is worth remembering that the Albiceleste is the top seed in Group C, where they will face Saudi Arabia (Tuesday, November 22, at 7), Mexico (Saturday, November 26, at 4) and Poland (Wednesday, November 30, at 16).
