Argentine paper slams Flamengo post, sparks outrage nearby | OneFootball

'Olé' published Flamengo's joke comparing Brazil and Argentina

After eliminating Estudiantes (ARG) in the Libertadores, the social networks of Flamengo went wild. There was no shortage of taunts for the team from La Plata and even with Argentina. One of the messages resonated so much that it reached 'Olé', the country's largest sports newspaper.

In a joke, Flamengo compared Brazilian and Argentine traditions, always putting the qualities of our country at an advantage. 'Olé' replicated the content and made a call to the 'hermanos': "leave your greeting for Flamengo here".

WHAT DID FLAMENGO WRITE?

"Cold mate is better than hot mate. Brigadeiro is better than alfajor. Samba is better than tango. Street fair pastel is better than empanada. Zico is greater than Maradona. Barbecue is better than roast. Brazilian wine is better than Argentine wine. One real is greater than 247 Argentine pesos".

In the comments, there was a lot of outrage among the Argentines, even with racist content, such as: "but if you call them monkeys, they stop finding it funny" and "meat stew is better than monkey soup". In addition, others mocked Flamengo's post, since the Argentine Rossi was the hero of the qualification.

The rubro-negros, of course, also made their presence felt in the comments, taunting the Argentines and, especially, Estudiantes. Including, jokes with the name of Gonzalo Plata with the team from La Plata were a hit among Flamengo fans.

AND RACING?

Next opponent of Flamengo, Racing (ARG) also made its presence felt in the 'Olé' comments. Fans of the Avellaneda team taunted the rubro-negro in the message: "let's see if they repeat this post in a month".

Flamengo and Racing will face each other in the last two weeks of October, in the weeks of the 22nd and 29th. The first game will be at Maracanã, with the return at Estadio Presidente Perón, in Avellaneda, for the semifinals of the Copa Libertadores de América.
