#1 One hell of a story
Argentina might not be everyone’s cup of cake but imagine this: a team that was on the brink of losing out of the World Cup due to their poor outing in the qualifiers and then somehow winning the World Cup against all odds – does that not make a hell of a story?
In the middle, they were once again on the brink of being eliminated from the group stages but scraped their way through somehow. Somehow.
Somehow.
This is a word that Argentines could associate themselves with a lot. Their story so far is like that of a kid who had no money to travel to the stadium to play a match, but somehow walked and crawled his way through.
Tired from all the walking and crawling, he wasn’t playing the best of games but somehow managed to score the goal that saved his team on the day.
And somehow, they could win this World Cup and complete a fairytale.
