'It was an extension of how Argentina had acted for the past six weeks, committing the most fouls of any team and backing themselves to see off every challenge through sheer belligerence.
'How fitting that such a crude approach should finally be crushed by Spain, the consummate technicians, and that Fernández should play the fall guy.
'After all, this was not the first time the midfielder had behaved reprehensibly. It was not even the first time this week. Against England he had announced himself in the semi-final by whacking Elliot Anderson on the back of the head, before celebrating his goal with a gesture to suggest that his critics had too much to say. Topo Gigio, it is called in Argentina, where a player cups his hands behind his ears and invites his adversaries to keep talking.'
Except in Fernández’s case, as @oliverbrown_tel says, they arguably do not talk enough 👇

🚨 BREAKING: Early reports indicate that the AFA is considering BIG legal action over the misinformation campaign targeting Argentina’s players during the World Cup.
The potential defamation lawsuits would reportedly focus on false allegations, manipulated or unverified images, and accusations made without evidence.
The AFA is expected to go “all in,” targeting not only major media outlets and prominent accounts on social medias like X, Instagram and Tiktok, but ANYONE (even with few followers) who contributed to spreading the campaign, regardless of the size of their audience.
A legal team is reportedly already collecting evidence, including posts, screenshots and other material. Further developments are expected.
Guy has been crying for two hours in my mentions because I don’t worship his idol like him. At his big age. 😂
Many of you don’t have real life problems, wllahi. And no responsibilities.
