On penalties, La Albiceleste defeats France to win the World Cup.
The new World Cup champion is Argentina. On Sunday, December 18, the nation’s team defeated France on penalties to claim the 2022 FIFA World Cup. The team was captained by soccer superstar Lionel Messi. After a thrilling battle against the World Cup champions of 2018, La Albiceleste, the final team from Latin America, won the trophy. Argentina last won the World Cup in 1986, which was 36 years ago.
Argentina experienced a rocky ride during the competition after losing to Saudi Arabia 2-1 in November. However, the team turned things around and won the remaining games they played against Mexico, Poland, and Australia. Finally, they defeated Croatia and advanced to the championship game, which was held in Lusail Stadium in Qatar.
We put together a compilation of Argentine songs to celebrate the country’s significant victory, ranging from Fito Paez’s “Y dale alegra a mi corazón” to Andrés Calamaro’s “Maradona.” It goes without saying that Messi’s now-confirmed favourite song, La Mosca’s “Muchachos, Ahora Nos Volvimos an Ilusionar,” which combines ska, rock, and pop with tango, is on the playlist. Messi is pumped up by the song, as are the equally devoted Argentine sports fans.
According to Guillermo Novellis, the main vocalist of La Mosca, “the Argentine fan isn’t content with being a spectator; he wants a leading role, from the stands, from the audience.” “In Argentina, everyone has played soccer at some point in their lives.
