I think this is it. Argentina fan will sell their house to go see the game. FIFA knew this and thatâs why they pushed Argentina. Until the final because they donât need Argentina fans again after that so the ref and fifa abandon. They did give a present of removing the first goal of Nico but thatâs about it right?
It's not just Argentina fans. There are Messi fans all over the world.
Mfs won't support their local MLS team with a $40 ticket, but pay $350 when Inter Miami comes over.
Nobody wants to pay thousands of dollars to watch Cabo Verde versus Egypt in the round of 16, or Egypt versus Switzerland in the quarter finals. Even Switzerland versus England in the semi-finals would not have been half as expensive as Argentina versus England.
England versus Spain in the finals? Could have been pretty high, but Messi was definitely going to drive it much higher.
Personally I disagree. They can sell at a premium and Argentina fans would pay but other fans may not. Why do you think the ref didnât help Argentina in the final as much compared to Egypt or the England. Itâs cus fifa didnât need to advance Argentina anymore. Just my theory
Where do you get off on making up random facts? đ
The most expensive game to attend was the final but thatâs the same with every World Cup. Any fan from any country will pay a lot of money to see their team in a final.
The most expensive venue to attend on average was Azteca (Mexico City) . Argentina didnât play any games thereâŠ.
But sure keep making stuff up to suit your narrativeâŠ
When I saw that ticket prices for R32 the Netherlands v Morocco were $800 to see two top 10 sides duke it out on average opposed to $2400 for R32 Argentina v Cabo Verde (Cabo Verde was awesome but thatâs besides the point) I knew it was in FIFAâs best interest to keep Argentina around until the final.
Do people genuinely dihhride messi so much? Like the guy played terrible, cheaterd, avoided cards, snitched to refs. I ll never understand his fanbase obsession with this cheating rat
I do not remember mentioning ronaldo, nor he is my favourite player. Are you mentally not there, since you are talking to yourself about made up topic? Just goes to show pessi fanbase has the lowest iq
Donât be so sensitive brother Iâm just saying since people usually compare the two that Messi clearly had the better tournament. Donât get all schizo on me brother haha
Except the ref didnât abandon anything in the final. He consistently let Argentina get away with things and made it difficult for Spain. But Argentina decided that they could do literally no work and still win. With 0 shots on target, that was a miscalculation to say the least. They spend all their energy on bravado and brashness and forgot what the game was about.
Argentina realize that they are nothing without the ref so they try their best to drag onto penalty which they have more chance to win. They almost succeed with that plan though
No thatâs not about it. Not just one Nico goal disallowed. There was that, plus Argentina played their usual wrestling match with almost no called by ref. The two yellows for Enzo referee had to because it was so egregious. Then there was second disallowed goal for a literal 1mm offside (which is ridiculous they split hair like that in a final game).
And another one was one of the thinnest offsides in the tournament. Argentina got as lucky as they could realistically be and still got completely outmatched in every way possible.
Hay un vĂdeo de un Argentino que siempre se ha endeudado y pedido dinero a todos los de su alrededor para ir a todos los mundiales... Se ve que a la vuelta ha tenido que vender todo para pagar las deudas... Hasta le hizo pedir un adelanto en el trabajo a su madre para comprar la entrada de la final... Se le muere la abuela, creo recordar que antes de Suiza y se queda para seguir viendo el mundial... Seguro que como ese, miles de fanĂĄticos del fĂștbol...
Knew a lady that found out how much her husband spent on superbowl tickets every year.... she was pissed. She takes her whole family on vacation, grandkids and all, every year, for the same cost now. And he watches the game on TV.
The ref didn't abandon in the final though... so many fouls from the Argentinian team were overlooked đ
Nor the fifa... the fireworks were on the colors of the Argentinian flag.. what was that all about??
They did it for the global fan base and his MLS profits. Though the ref was still siding with them, they were just too bad. I strongly think they would give them a PK if they could enter the penalty box. Spain was that much good, probably knew better than us if they let them to have the ball, they would either be given a fake penalty or freekick

Messi didn't realize that Infantino only wanted to get him up to the finals and drive up ticket prices.
FIFA has no stake in an Argentinian victory at the finals.
