Di Maria Hails Argentina as Legends After World Cup Final Defeat

1 / 3

Argentina’s bid to retain the World Cup ended in a narrow 1-0 loss to Spain in extra time. Ferran Torres struck in the 106th minute after Enzo Fernández’s late red card left the Albiceleste down to ten men. Retired winger Ángel Di María took to social media to celebrate his former teammates. He reminded fans that one defeat cannot erase their status as national heroes. “You are history, you are legends, and no one can ever take that away from you,” Di María wrote. He praised the team’s five consecutive finals and thanked them for uniting the country. Looking ahead, manager Lionel Scaloni must integrate fresh talent. Young players like Nico Paz will be key to rebuilding for the next cycle.
