Crowned world champion at the expense of the France team a year ago, Argentina pulled out all the stops to celebrate the anniversary of its third supreme title.
This Monday in New York, in the middle of Times Square, a hologram of the absolute icon of the Albiceleste, Diego Maradona, appeared to greet the event. A little over three years after his tragic disappearance at the age of 60.
“ A year ago you gave me the greatest gift I could havesays the virtual projection of El Pibe de Oro, flanked by the jersey he wore in 1986. From here I want to thank you on behalf of all Argentines and I want the whole world to know it. »

And to add in a message broadcast every hour this December 18 in the heart of the city that never sleeps: “ In Qatar, we had a wonderful month. In my own way, I was there with you, like those thousands of supporters who painted every corner of the country blue and white. We embraced each other in defeat, we suffered together, we anguished, we rejoiced and the story had a happy ending: seeing Leo lift the cup with a team that played with their hearts on their sleeves. »
