Hopefully that trophy and the Qatary Abaya will bring Argentina's economy back to health.

[@darshanaverse]

This was not the first time a south american country won the world cup since 1996, since Brazil won it in 2002.

[@nashmiddleton1763]

She said it correctly - “…giving the South American nation its first WC win since 1986.”

[@jaimeherrera5407]

Was rigged so the flee could win a word cup

[@diouftaharqa7699]

we denounce the Argentinian government
of what it to Afro-Argentina;
what do you say Messi about Afro-Argentines in your country?
is it true the Argentine government is racist; he doesn't want to see Afro-Argentinians?

[@gustavotarsitano413]

Argentina does not have Afro descendants, because the slaves in 1850s were freed and returned to their country of origin. You must inform yourself and learn history, before giving your opinion. Argentina is a multi-ethnic nation.

[@snuffy9742]

↑↑↑

[@jorged06]

Argentina has about 1% of afro descendants. A lot of afro-southamericans play here. These last decade many came from Senegal and southamerican countries. But very little play football. DOn´t be ignorant and come with your typical american bias. The world is not the US.

[@cheezchris]

Soccer... cringe.

[@deuscaritasest1278]

🤣🤣 stay mad

[@deib3325]

I love how you were literally looking for trouble, and no one cared about your comment 🤣

[@valeriaa1559]

It was a historical day for us, this team made us immensely happy!! Thank you Messi and everyone around the world sending their love and support ♥️🇦🇷

[@rafitaplayz]

[@OliverMorales]

Every time I see an Argentine I will say: there are the world champions, those who achieved that historic feat in Qatar, because I see a world champion in every Argentine.

[@ashwanikumar6889]

Congratulations Argentina

[@123santib]

Congratulations Argentina you have the best team in the world. Greetings from Córdoba Capiiital

[@卢军宏台长心灵法-u3d]

Happiness lies in appreciating
those who are kind to us.
Acknowledging the strengths of others
warms our hearts, whereas finding faults
with others serves only to bring more
afflictions upon ourselves.
Appreciating the strengths of others
and looking beyond their weaknesses brings
forth the light in our hearts.

[@richardcalisi9188]
