Before the debates, the Paraguayan Football Association (APF) announced the color, publishing a press release via social networks aimed at prohibiting any sign of affection or admiration for the Argentine world champions, and in particular their leader game Lionel Messi.
Messi jerseys despite everything?
“ Persons wearing clothing referring to the colors of the Argentine national team, Argentine clubs or Argentine players from other teams will not be allowed entry. They will not be allowed to enter the stadium even if they have purchased tickets », clearly explains the APF. Neither more nor less than a “ anti-Messi law » according to the Argentine press.
In Paraguay as in all Spanish-speaking South American countries, La Pulga remains the most popular player, adored by many football fans. “ For the Paraguayan footballer, to support him, wearing the national team jersey makes sense. But Leo is stronger than all that and there will be Argentina jerseys », Still predicts Argentinian coach Lionel Scaloni.
