You have to see it: AFA's special video, a month before the final | OneFootball

The official account of the Argentina national team posted an emotional video looking back on Lionel Scaloni’s team’s performance in the last World Cup, one month after the final lost to Spain. In the post, the AFA once again states its position on the conspiracy theories that caused so much uproar among fans since that match.

“A month ago, something happened. What happened was what many didn’t want to happen: Argentina played in another final. And that happened, even if many want to overlook it,” the narrator says at the start of the recording.

“What happened was that we came from behind in every knockout match we played, that we made history by knocking out England in a semifinal. But do you know what else happened? That this group came with the goal of giving the fans another final.”

Then, mention was made of the wave of criticism the national team faced during the World Cup. “No matter how much of an anti-Argentina campaign there was, we got there anyway. So when someone tells you that something happened, you tell them yes. What happened was that there was a team that gave everything to win, that fought until the end with its head held high, that never gave up. And even though it had won everything it played, this time it had to lose, and that could happen because, as Scaloni says, the other team plays too.”

Lastly, there was a reference to Lionel Messi: “Do you know when the most important thing happened? Right at the end, because our captain’s tears once again taught us that you can win or lose, but what you can’t do, no matter what happens, is stop trying. Always with you, Argentina.”
