Arrogance or pride? Argentina grapples with World Cup villain label

BUENOS AIRES: Critics blasted Argentina for dirty tactics and poor sportsmanship during their 1-0 loss to Spain, cementing the country’s status as World Cup villain that grew throughout the tournament.

While star Lionel Messi is beloved around the world, anti-Argentina sentiment grew as critics argued they were FIFA’s darling and received favorable referee calls such as penalties and cards shown to opponents. Then came the final, replete with fouls, brawls on the pitch, and the Argentine squad turning their backs when Spain received the World Cup trophy.

But we always give it our all.” ‘We love it’ Many Argentines online wore the criticism as a badge of honor. “There’s something about Argentine irreverence that they can’t tolerate.
