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. But Argentines argue they are just passionate and misunderstood. “I think we deserve some credit for not being very well-liked, because of this tendency to be arrogant and look down on most people from a pedestal,” said Leo Simone, 55, a lawyer, from his home north of Buenos Aires. “They confuse arrogance with pride,” his wife chimed in, preferring not to give her name. 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. The New York Times called it a “tetchy, petulant and distasteful performance.” Former Germany player Thomas Hitzlsperger wrote on X that the team were “disgusting sportsmen” and British television personality Piers Morgan said “they basically just went around whacking as many Spanish players as they could.” Near Ezeiza Airport, where thousands of fans welcomed the players returning to Buenos Aires on Monday night, Maximiliano Heredia, a 35-year-old construction worker, said: “We’ve always been criticized, we’re used to it. 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.

Thousands welcome home Argentina squad, without Messi, despite World Cup loss
EZEIZA, Argentina: Thousands of fans braved the cold and rain Monday to give a rapturous welcome to the Argentine football squad who landed back home without star Lionel Messi, after their World Cup final loss to Spain. It was not the homecoming Argentines had hoped for, four years after millions celebrated their team’s tournament victory in 2022, but fresh scenes of joyful chaos filled the street as they danced, sang and set off fireworks to thank the players. The Argentine Football Association (AFA) said earlier that some squad members would not be on the flight, and iconic team captain Messi was not seen descending from the aircraft in images broadcast on local television. Coach Lionel Scaloni and the rest of the team were welcomed with a red carpet outside the aircraft and a military band. They then boarded a bus, waving to frenzied fans along the way. Despite falling short of a second straight championship, “Argentines will celebrate anyway,” said housewife Marga Ledezma.
