Entre Espanha e Argentina, o futebol mostrou, mais uma vez, que nunca se separa da política. As acusações de racismo contra os dois países não devem deixar esquecer que o esporte deve ser também um espaço de resistência. Thomás Zicman de Barros, analista político Apesar de só ter marcado no final da prorrogação, não há dúvida de que a Espanha dominou a final da Copa do Mundo contra a Argentina. Muita gente no Brasil comemorou a derrota dos nossos vizinhos. Para além da rivalidade e do futebol ruim apresentado pela alviceleste, muitos justificavam a torcida por motivos políticos. Como disse antes mesmo do início do torneio, política e futebol são inseparáveis. Para alguns, torcer pela Argentina significaria legitimar o racismo que marca o país. Houve até quem transformasse essa escolha numa forma conveniente de expiar o racismo brasileiro, apontando o dedo para os outros. A Argentina convive, sim, com um grave problema de racismo. Os episódios se repetem nas arquibancadas, nas redes sociais e, por vezes, entre os próprios jogadores. O silêncio de muitos de seus principais atletas diante desse fenômeno também é eloquente. Como se diz hoje, não basta não ser racista: é preciso ser antirracista. Neste aspecto, porém, a Espanha também leva cartão vermelho. Trata-se do país onde Vini Jr. foi alvo de uma escancarada campanha racista, que no entanto tentaram apagar. Até mesmo Javier Tebas, presidente da La Liga, em vez de enfrentar o racismo que se abatia contra o jogador, insinuou que era Vinicius que provocava as torcidas. Fenômeno atravessa séculos O racismo espanhol e argentino vem de longa data. A Espanha foi uma das grandes potências coloniais da era moderna. Ainda que tenha perdido esse protagonismo ao longo do século XX, enfrentando décadas de decadência, conservou por muito tempo uma imagem de si mesma como centro civilizador. A Argentina percorreu uma história diferente, mas chegou a um lugar parecido. Desde o século XIX, parte das elites de Buenos Aires procurou apresentar o país como uma espécie de Europa transplantada para a América do Sul. Domingo Faustino Sarmiento, intelectual que viria a ser presidente do país, resumiu esse projeto na fórmula que atravessou gerações: "civilização ou barbárie". A civilização era a Europa. A barbárie eram os povos indígenas, os mestiços, os gaúchos, todos aqueles que não cabiam no ideal de uma nação branca e europeia. Mas há algo curioso nessa frase. Se Sarmiento precisou opor civilização e barbárie é porque a chamada “barbárie” não branca existia e resistia. E isso vale para os dois finalistas desta Copa do Mundo. A Espanha nunca foi apenas Madri. É, na prática, uma comunidade plurinacional, onde catalães, bascos, galegos e tantos outros disputam há séculos diferentes maneiras de entender o próprio país. Foi também nessas periferias que se organizaram algumas das resistências mais duradouras ao franquismo. E a Espanha do século XXI tampouco é a Espanha sonhada pelos nacionalistas. É um país profundamente transformado pela imigração. Basta olhar para Lamine Yamal, prodígio da seleção espanhola, para perceber isso. Ele é o filho de imigrantes que mostra que a Espanha real é muito mais diversa do que o imaginário construído pelos supremacistas. Algo parecido se vê na Argentina. Por trás da fantasia de uma nação exclusivamente europeia sempre existiu outro país: indígena, mestiço, popular. A Argentina dos chamados cabecitas negras, mobilizados pelo peronismo contra as elites portenhas. Uma Argentina que nunca aceitou desaparecer. Maradona: a Argentina que resiste Maradona talvez tenha sido seu símbolo mais poderoso. Reivindicava sua origem guarani, fazia questão de afirmar sua identidade latino-americana, abraçava causas anti-imperialistas quando isso podia custar muito caro. Era, talvez sem o dizer, a revanche daquela Argentina que Sarmiento havia chamado de “barbárie”. É curioso notar que os jogadores argentinos de hoje, tão omissos quando o assunto é racismo, tenham encontrado tanta convicção para defender a soberania argentina sobre as Malvinas. Depois da vitória sobre a Inglaterra, exibiram uma faixa reafirmando a reivindicação do arquipélago. O gesto lembrava algo que Hannah Arendt observou ao analisar o imperialismo moderno: as hierarquias raciais e a lógica imperial nasceram da mesma visão de mundo. Não é possível combater uma e ignorar completamente a outra. Nada disso transforma a Argentina em exemplo de antirracismo. Nem absolve a Espanha de sua dificuldade em enfrentar o preconceito arraigado. Agora, se política e futebol são inseparáveis, é preciso celebrar os momentos de resistência. O futebol continuará sendo um campo de disputa. Que seja também um espaço de luta antirracista.

O apito final deixou os argentinos em um doloroso silêncio. Aos poucos, a tristeza por uma derrota tão perto do quarto título mundial passou a conviver com o orgulho. A iminente despedida de Lionel Messi também levou os argentinos às ruas para agradecer ao ídolo. Márcio Resende, correspondente da RFI em Buenos Aires Quem desembarcou em Buenos Aires depois de um voo que coincidiu com a final da Copa do Mundo teve a impressão de que a Argentina havia sido campeã. Milhares de torcedores, nas principais cidades do país, lotaram avenidas e praças para homenagear a seleção argentina. A celebração também foi uma forma de amenizar a dor da derrota na final. “Simplesmente, acho que temos de agradecer a esta seleção. Chegamos até aqui. É uma equipe maravilhosa. Eles realmente deram tudo de si. Simplesmente, obrigado e desejo o melhor para eles”, diz a torcedora Marta Feijoo, 67. Matías Ferreira, 38, também enaltece o desempenho da seleção argentina nesta Copa. “A garra que os jogadores demonstraram em cada partida, o feito que alcançaram, o orgulho que nos deram, a forma como nos representaram, inclusive contra a Inglaterra, uma ferida nossa. Hoje, infelizmente, não foi possível, mas temos de apoiar os jogadores quando voltarem. Temos de recebê-los, porque o que eles fizeram é algo do qual devemos nos orgulhar”, diz Matías. A ansiedade de uma final de Copa do Mundo e uma atuação apagada em campo foram sentidas no principal parque de Buenos Aires, onde mais de 50 mil pessoas assistiram à partida. Aos poucos, a tensão deu lugar à angústia. Pela primeira vez nesta Copa do Mundo, os argentinos tiveram reações tímidas e quase não cantaram, um comportamento irreconhecível para uma torcida considerada incansável, mesmo diante da adversidade. Ainda com lágrimas nos olhos, Santino, 10, reconhece que a Argentina não jogou bem. “A Espanha jogou muito bem. Por isso, mereceu o segundo título mundial. Nós não jogamos bem. Paciência. Agora, temos que sair daqui chateados e um pouco tristes, sem a Copa do Mundo. Vamos continuar em busca do nosso quarto título em 2030”, conforma-se. Patricia Castellini, 57, ficou abalada com o gol da Espanha na prorrogação. “Estou muito triste. Esses jogadores mereciam ganhar. São pessoas muito boas e batalhadoras. De qualquer forma, fica o nosso orgulho”, afirma. “Tenho orgulho da nossa seleção e orgulho de ser argentina, mas não estou triste porque não acho que tenhamos fracassado. Chegar a uma final não é fácil. Além disso, sou filha de um espanhol. Então, as emoções se misturam”, conta Nélida Pinal, 58. Ao contrário dos ingleses, os argentinos não cultivam rivalidade com a Espanha. A maioria das famílias argentinas descende de espanhóis e italianos. Orgulho e tristeza por Messi A tristeza não se deve apenas à derrota, mas também à provável despedida de Lionel Messi das Copas do Mundo. Kevin Calo, 17, emociona-se ao imaginar essa ausência no futuro. “É muito triste porque eu não queria que a última Copa do Mundo do Messi terminasse assim. Agora, sem o Messi, vai ser doloroso. Desde que acompanho futebol, o Messi está na seleção. E vê-lo partir também será horrível”, diz Kevin. Julia Pinal, 59, vê um vazio na seleção argentina sem Messi, assim como aconteceu após a saída de Diego Maradona. “Como Messi, acho que não haverá outro. Houve um Maradona, houve um Messi. Mas não haverá outro Messi. Vai ser difícil encontrar alguém como ele. Acho que vai ser difícil”, acredita. A superstição de Julia ao longo das duas últimas Copas do Mundo era usar uma máscara de Lionel Messi nos momentos difíceis da seleção, como se incorporasse o personagem de seu herói. Desta vez, o ritual da sorte não deu resultado. “Nem com a máscara do Messi foi possível. Mas estou satisfeita porque essa equipe nos deu muitas alegrias”, conforma-se. Victor Hugo, 38, diz que “vai levar Messi para sempre no coração”. “Porque Messi nos deu muitas alegrias. Messi sai de cena, mas tenho fé de que os demais vão saber vestir essa camisa. Estamos derrotados, mas este é o início de um novo ciclo na Argentina”, observa, otimista. Mas o pequeno Santino sintetiza o temor da maioria. “Não tenho a menor ideia de como será o novo ciclo da Argentina sem Messi, mas sei que vamos perder um pouco de força”, conclui. Celebrações e feriado nacional A seleção argentina deve chegar à capital do país ainda nesta segunda-feira (20), por volta das 17h. O presidente Javier Milei disse que vai decretar um feriado de 24 horas, dependendo do que os jogadores e a comissão técnica decidirem sobre uma celebração. O mais provável é que, diante do clamor popular, haja uma celebração na terça-feira (21). Milhares de torcedores permaneceram nas ruas até a madrugada, como se comemorassem a conquista de um título. No centro de Buenos Aires, houve distúrbios e confrontos com a polícia. De um lado, garrafas e pedras; do outro, balas de borracha e bombas de gás lacrimogêneo. Dez pessoas ficaram feridas, sete delas policiais. Quinze pessoas foram presas.

Every four years the FIFA World Cup attracts a world-wide audience. And every FIFA World Cup also attracts controversy. Forty years ago, in 1986, the games in Mexico had their fair share of controversy, as well as amazing moments, surrounding Diego Maradona. Maradona is one of the greatest footballers, or soccer players, of all time. He started playing professionally just before his 16th birthday. He was already a popular player when he arrived at the 1986 World Cup in Mexico. However, it would be his performance here, especially in the quarterfinal game against England, that would cement his name in history.This story is told in the third person and the past tense. Important vocabulary in the story includes: “ganó” (won/beat), “partido” (game), “pelota” (ball), “golpeó” (hit), and “Inglaterra” (England).No matter where you are in your language journey, stories will help you on your way.

Spain put together their best performance of the tournament, dominating France 2 to 0 behind Pedro Porro's overlapping runs and Rodri's control in midfield, while Didier Deschamps drew criticism for blaming the referee afterward instead of crediting a better team. Then Jason Longshoe and Madison Crews dig into the biggest match in Atlanta sports history: Argentina and England meet in a World Cup for the first time since 2002, with Lionel Messi facing England for the first time in his career. They trace the rivalry's roots from the 1966 quarterfinal and the Falklands War through Maradona's Hand of God and David Beckham's fall and redemption, then break down the tactical questions facing both sides, including whether Lionel Scaloni benches Rodrigo De Paul and how Argentina plans to handle Anthony Gordon.

Spain are in the World Cup final after beating France 2-0 in Dallas – producing one of the most complete performances of the tournament to reach the showpiece. Mikel Oyarzabal converted a penalty in the 22nd minute after Lamine Yamal was fouled by Lucas Digne, before Pedro Porro added a second goal in the second half. But the wider story was how Spain neutralised France's attack. Kylian Mbappe, Ousmane Dembele, Michael Olise and Bradley Barcola managed only three shots on target between them. Spain's midfield, anchored by Rodri, was dominant throughout. France head coach Didier Deschamps faces questions about his tactical choices after starting four attackers against a Spain side built to dominate possession. Mbappe said France failed to press high as planned. Rayan Cherki was more direct, saying France were beaten technically, tactically and in the duels. Deschamps is due to step down after the tournament. Spain are to face England or Argentina in Sunday's final at MetLife Stadium. Tonight, England face Argentina at 11pm UAE time in Atlanta. The match carries the weight of history, from Diego Maradona's "Hand of God" goal in 1986 to David Beckham's red card in 1998. Argentina's team have been filmed singing about the Malvinas and Maradona, as well as Lionel Messi, who is playing in what is expected to be his final World Cup. In other news, Fifa is expected to wait until after the tournament to decide whether to take action against coaches and players who criticised referees. England manager Thomas Tuchel, Switzerland player Manuel Akanji and Egypt coach Hossam Hassan have all made remarks about officials during the tournament. Meanwhile, the World Cup final half-time show is expected to run for 20 to 25 minutes, with Madonna, Shakira, BTS, Justin Bieber and Burna Boy among the names linked to the performance. Mina Rzouki presents Trending Middle East's World Cup round-up, a daily bonus series from The National for the duration of the tournament.

The World Cup semifinals arrive this week, and Jason breaks down both. France chases a third straight final against the one team that keeps beating them, Spain, with the mental war, the Rajoy controversy, and the tactical keys to Tuesday's match in Dallas. Then it's the match twenty one years in the making: Lionel Messi finally plays England, right here in Atlanta on Wednesday. Jason covers the full history of one of the sport's fiercest rivalries, Jude Bellingham's Maradona level stat, and the bulletin board material coming out of the English media. Plus, Atlanta United makes it official on center back Júnior Alonso, Atlanta United 2 routs Inter Miami II, MLS launches the biggest campaign in league history, and the USWNT sets a huge October date against Spain. It all closes with the 3-4-3.

On this week's episode of The Joy of Football Podcast, Martin Tyler joins Neil Barnett from Atlanta as England prepare for a mouthwatering FIFA World Cup semi-final against Argentina, with a place in the 2026 World Cup Final at stake. The pair begin with Voice of Passion, where Neil argues that Jude Bellingham has now completed the journey from prodigious talent to genuine world-class footballer. Martin explains why Bellingham's consistency, personality and influence have elevated him into football's elite, before the discussion widens to Harry Kane's tournament, Spain's outstanding young defender Pau Cubarsí, and whether the expanded 48-team FIFA World Cup has actually allowed the game's biggest stars to shine brighter than ever. In Martin's Letter From The Gantry, Martin reflects on the positives of the 2026 FIFA World Cup as the tournament enters its final week. From the spectacular stadiums across the United States, Canada and Mexico, to advances in semi-automated offside technology, improved playing surfaces and innovations in broadcasting, he explains why this World Cup may ultimately be remembered as a landmark tournament despite the controversy surrounding its expansion. Martin also shares behind-the-scenes stories from working alongside Andy Townsend and Matt Holland for HBS, and reveals why Dallas and Atlanta have left such a lasting impression. The episode concludes with One Game, Many Comparisons, as Martin and Neil embark on an ambitious journey through every FIFA World Cup Final since 1954. From Ferenc Puskás and Hungary's Miracle of Bern, Pelé's emergence as football's first global superstar, Garrincha, Paolo Rossi, Diego Maradona and Franz Beckenbauer, to Johan Cruyff's Total Football, Zinedine Zidane's genius, Ronaldo's redemption, Brazil's golden generations and Germany's remarkable consistency, the pair debate the greatest players, greatest teams and defining moments in World Cup history. Along the way, they revisit England's 1966 triumph, Argentina's controversial 1978 victory, the tactical evolution of the modern game, and ask the ultimate footballing question: Pelé or Maradona? It's another packed episode celebrating the history of the FIFA World Cup, featuring football nostalgia, tactical insight, broadcasting stories and fascinating debate from two men who have spent a lifetime immersed in the world's greatest sporting event. #FIFAWorldCup #WorldCup2026 #FootballPodcast #MartinTyler #JudeBellingham #HarryKane #England #ThreeLions #Argentina #Brazil #Pele #DiegoMaradona #WorldCupHistory #FootballHistory #GOATDebate #Football #Soccer #JoyOfFootball #JoyOfFootballPodcast #WorldCupFinal Hosted by The Revive Lounge Ltd UCsdye1hUxP4xhgBx9zvuSjg Subscribe to https://youtube.com/@TheReviveLounge?si=L5ddzrJrtSmErtJ5 Support the Pod https://patreon.com/TheJoysofFootballPodcast?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink Read us on Substack https://martintylerandneilbarnett.substack.com/ Follow our Twitter https://x.com/TheJOF Follow our Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@joy_of_football_pod?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc Follow our Instagram https://https://www.instagram.com/joy_of_football_pod/ Contact us via: therevivelounge@gmail.com Music by Arron Clague - https://www.instagram.com/arronclague?igsh=aHg1bjQ3OHpmaXIz Intro Sequence by Wellong Sadewo (wells.illustration): https://www.instagram.com/wells.illustration/ A massive thank you to our Patreon Supporters: Nick Parmenter Hillary Abbott Daniel Butigan Tommy Mck Katie Watson Nathan A Learn more about your ad choices.

Mercredi à 21h, l'Angleterre et l'Argentine s'affrontent pour une place en finale de la Coupe du monde 2026. Ce sera la sixième fois dans l'histoire de la compétition que les deux nations se feront face. Leurs confrontations ont offert quelques-unes des images les plus marquantes de l'histoire de la compétition avec notamment la "main de Dieu" de Maradona en 1986. Le parcours des deux équipes dans ce Mondial pour parvenir en demi-finale a été laborieux. Chacune des deux nations a des arguments à faire valoir pour atteindre la finale : l'esprit d'équipe fort de l'Albiceleste et le talent des joueurs anglais. Dans ce nouvel épisode d'On refait le match, la quotidienne, Éric Silvestro, Jano Resseguié et Raphaël Vantard décryptent ce match qui a été classé par les autorités américaines comme "le plus dangereux" depuis le début de la compétition.

On today's episode of The Therapy Crouch, Peter and Abbey are back together from opposite sides of the world, with Pete still in Los Angeles covering the Club World Cup while Abbey holds down the fort in Portugal... and it's fair to say long distance is still bringing plenty of chaos.The pair kick things off by catching up after time apart, with Peter showing off his questionable LA haircut before the conversation quickly spirals into expensive celebrity barbers, World Cup stories and Abbey receiving an unexpected history lesson on Maradona's infamous "Hand of God".Elsewhere, Abbey opens up about a brand new parenting challenge as the couple navigate life with a 15-year-old daughter and the reality of teenage boys beginning to appear on the scene. They also tackle one listener's noisy partner, another whose role play was completely derailed by an overly committed builder delivering a full loft conversion quote, and revisit the legendary "lingerie crab" story after the couple write back with a surprising update... and some very happy news.There's also a fiery renovation debate as Peter discovers more surprise bills arriving for their new house, admits his only contribution has been choosing the boilers, and accuses Abbey of going "knob shopping" without him.Plus, Peter reflects honestly on life after professional football, why he rarely plays anymore despite still loving the game, whether they've already "peaked" in life, and why finding new passions has become more important than ever.If you want to submit an Agony Ab or Ask Me Anything question to the podcast, hit the link below:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1rAKD...00:00 - Intro01:00 - Peter explains why every footballer ends up with the same World Cup haircut02:25 - Expensive LA barbers03:15 - World Cup excitement and talking about Kane's goal04:05 - Peter tells Abbey the full story of Maradona's infamous "Hand of God"06:55 - Parenting worries begin as Abbey opens up08:00 - The realities of teenage girls and navigating dating as parents10:05 - World Cup moments and England excitement11:00 - Peter's Weekly Whine: surprise renovation bills keep arriving from home12:20 - Boilers, driveway lights and why Peter feels left out of designing the house13:25 - Knob shopping15:10 - Peter reveals the only part of the new house he actually wants control over16:25 - Listener update: the famous "lingerie crab" mystery finally gets solved18:15 - Engagement news after one of the podcast's strangest ever listener dilemmas19:20 - Peter wearing women's clothes and the conversation gets ridiculous20:00 - Abbey's Love Island lookalike and Gaz's invitation to a Fourth of July LA pool party22:00 - Agony Ab: what do you do when your boyfriend is a bedroom screamer?24:45 - Long distance life and why this week's episode became a catch-up instead26:10 - Former athlete struggles: does Peter still miss playing professional football?28:00 - Peter admits football frustrates him now and explains why he rarely plays29:00 - Finding new passions through golf and life after football30:00 - Have Peter and Abbey already "peaked" in life?

If winning the World Cup with Argentina in favourable conditions was one thing then guiding Napoli to their first ever league title was a completely different challenge. The south was not supposed to win Scudetti after all. Dominic Hougham and Martyn review a famous season in Italy, discuss whether or not it would be possible without the World Cup win and if this is the greatest 12 months that one footballer has ever enjoyed. Furthermore, on our epic journey through football history, Serie A's time has now very much begun.

Ronaldo just answered his critics with a brace in Portugal's 5–0 win over Uzbekistan, while Messi has five goals and Mbappé and Haaland have four each in the early World Cup golden‑boot race, setting up a tournament that could reignite every GOAT debate at once. With Portugal among the contenders and Argentina also near the top of the odds boards, the crew points out there's a real chance we get a Ronaldo‑vs‑Messi World Cup knockout clash, where one legend sends the other home and the internet melts down.

Every World Cup has its stand‑out personalities and talking points. This year, fans have been as delighted by Lionel Messi's performance in the tournament, his sixth World Cup, and by the stand‑out style of DR Congo superfan Lumumba Vea, as they have been sometimes baffled by hydration breaks. But only a handful of moments are remembered throughout the decades. In 1986 in Mexico City, Diego Maradona scored two goals for Argentina in a match against England that will never be forgotten. World Service News editor Lourdes Heredia, it turns out, was there and witnessed what Maradona would go on to call his 'Hand of God' goal. A few weeks ago in Afghanistan, in the western city of Herat, people took to the streets in a rare protest after local Taliban government officials reportedly began arresting women perceived to be “improperly wearing the hijab." Since the Taliban returned to power in 2021, women's rights have been restricted more and more. Women are no longer allowed to go to secondary school or university, beauty parlours have been banned, travel restrictions have been put in place dictating how far women can travel from home, and women have been ordered not to speak when out in public. Mahjooba Nowrouzi and Mamoon Durrani of BBC Afghan have been reporting on these protests and looking into Taliban leadership.The Fifth Floor is at the heart of global storytelling on the BBC World Service, bringing you the best stories from journalists in the BBC's 43 language services. We're here to help you make sense of the stories making headlines around the world; to excite your curiosity and to get to grips with the facts. Recent episodes have investigated Russia's youth armies and how they make soldiers of Ukrainian children; featured the BBC team who were the first journalists to the site of the Nigerian school kidnappings and reflected the effects of internet blackouts in Iran, Uganda and India. If you want to know more about Venezuela's acting president, Delcy Rodriguez, and the legacy of Hugo Chavez; or how Vladimir Putin's network of deep cover spies operates; or why Donald Trump signed an executive order granting white South Africans asylum in the US, we have all those stories and more.Presented by Faranak Amidi.

Bomani Jones is joined by Spencer Hall for a Time Machine Tuesday edition of The Right Time to revisit some of the most chaotic, controversial, and unforgettable WTF moments in World Cup history. Bo and Spencer break down Diego Maradona's infamous “Hand of God” goal against England in the 1986 World Cup, the geopolitical weight behind Argentina vs. England, and why Maradona followed one of soccer's most blatant acts of cheating with one of the greatest goals the sport has ever seen. Then, they jump to the 2006 World Cup Final and Zinedine Zidane's stunning headbutt against Italy, discussing how trash talk, pressure, and Italian defensive dark arts helped create one of the most shocking exits in sports history. Plus, Bo and Spencer look ahead to the 2026 World Cup in North America, from brutal summer heat to public transportation problems, stadium naming chaos, and why international fans may not be ready for how big — and inconvenient — the United States really is.
