, a historic name in Argentine football, was the target of several insults and abuses from River Plate fans during a match between the Buenos Aires side and Rosario Central. In the aftermath of the game, which ended in defeat for Fideo’s team, Jorgelina Cardoso, the wife of the former Benfica player, responded to the supporters of the rival club.

"Just knowing that you have nothing in common with people who spew venom, resentment, hatred, and live a sad life makes me happy and at peace, because it shows we are on the right side," began Di María’s wife, an athlete who has been at the center of attention in recent days.

"With humility, living happily as a family and being good people, enjoying every minute of our city, our people, and our life," continued Jorgelina Cardoso in a post shared on social media, where she showed all her love and affection for Benfica’s former number 11, who was targeted by offensive chants from opposing fans.

"How proud I am that you are mine, that you are ours, that you belong to [Rosario] Central. Thank you for being so different from that herd of poor souls," concluded the wife of the former Benfica star. Jorgelina Cardoso’s post drew several reactions, and the Argentine star was one of them.

"Thank you for always being by my side and for supporting me. Together for more dreams," wrote Di María in response to Jorgelina Cardoso’s post. As a reminder, Fideo left Benfica in the summer of 2025 to return to Rosario Central and, in the coming weeks, could see his compatriot Nicolás Otamendi join River Plate.
