Argentina and the Netherlands starred in a tense match this Friday in the quarter-finals of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. After the last penalty in the shootout, taken by Lautaro Martinez and with which Albicelestes won the shootout, the players, embracing in the center of the field, heated up the action even more.
After the final penalty, which brought victory to Lionel Messi and company, all the South American players present on the field celebrated the victory in the face, making all kinds of gestures and mockery, which provoked the second brawl of the match.
For every action there is a reaction, and the Dutch immediately went into confrontation with a large part of the Argentines. As a result of that small fight, Inter Milan winger and Lautaro teammate in Italy Denzel Dumfries received a red card.
The match was accompanied by controversial decisions, constant breaks and the forgiveness of yellow cards. At one point, the game got out of control for Mateu Laos and several players nearly got into a fight over a foul by Paredes and a ball that landed on the Dutch bench by Molina.
Even in extra time, the tension became even more tense with repeated kicks and protests. Even in the penalty shootout, the referee received several yellow cards.
After a tense shootout, Messi and some Albicelesta figures met with part of the coaching staff led by Van Gaal and Davids. The problem also moved to a press conference in the mixed zone, when Messi turned to his opponent in a defiant manner in the middle of an interview. What are you looking at, idiot?
According to information from the same communicator who spoke to La Pulga, this will be a dispute with Wout Weghorst, number 19 in the Netherlands.
