28 years after their last triumph, Argentina had done it again this year: winning the Copa America! Players, coaches and officials have immortalized themselves in the history books, but not only there …
Captured with joy, captain Lionel Messi went down after the final whistle and could hardly believe it himself. The 34-year-old has fulfilled his dream and achieved a great triumph for his country with Argentina at the Copa America after goalscorer Angel Di Maria scored the only winning goal in the final against Brazil. The whole country was upside down.
Player list, coach, date, lettering
The title can no longer be taken from the nation. For an Argentine fan that was obviously reason enough to have the entire squad list (28 players) plus the coach’s name Lionel Scaloni, the date and the words “yerte vi campeon” stabbed on the back. And: Should La Albiceleste win the World Cup in Qatar in the next calendar year, there would be room for a further list.
