  • they're up to nothing but then I mean

  • they came back inside at the very last

  • minute 10 minutes of extra time they

  • score right at the end and then

  • the craziest thing was the storm that

  • happened so we're up here in the

  • mountains and whenever it gets like

  • really cloudy or really stormy or

  • anything crazy is going on with the

  • weather there is no signal and the

  • DirecTV went out right as we were going

  • into the penalty kicks which was insane

  • so like one guy pulled out his phone and

  • like he had a radio and he had to plug

  • in like a little antenna and like it was

  • just nuts trying to watch that game but

  • it was really fun to do it with the

  • group because of the excitement

  • everybody was so we ended up hearing

  • them win yes not watching we didn't

  • watch them

  • you know back when sports fans used to

  • gather around the radio yeah I know my

  • grandfather used to do that he's there's

  • a story he would go out in the winter

  • and listen to the Chicago Blackhawks

  • games listing in in his car yeah I mean

  • the past passion during the game I mean

  • you wouldn't believe how loud it got

  • when they scored but it also got very

  • tense and quiet at times argentines are

  • very passionate fans yes and I mean the

  • World Cup is the biggest event also can

  • we just take a moment to talk about that

  • referee like what was up with those

  • yellow cars it felt like he was going

  • like you get a car you get a car it was

  • he was handing them out like

  • it was just insane it was nuts and when

  • he decided to add on 10 minutes 10

  • minutes of overtime what do you mean

  • you your whole life yes you know Canon's

  • not very good football got to admit that

  • we didn't watch the Canada game

  • we knew they weren't going anywhere

  • that's really really bad to admit

  • admittedly but but I mean we we do cheer

  • for Argentina and we've seen them get so

  • close before right they made it to the

  • finals one year with Germany they

  • finally won the Copa America and it was

  • just a lot was writing on this game

  • because it was probably Messi's last

  • chance and we really wanted to see him

  • win a World Cup like to cement his

  • legacy but also just for the country too

  • I mean it's just a big deal here yeah

  • football is huge and it's a it's a big

  • morale booster for the country yes

  • that's the thing it's not just about

  • football it's not about the game game

  • like

  • football in Argentina carries all the

  • hopes and dreams and people's

  • aspirations and it brings the country

  • together and they are going through a

  • very rough economic time so like this is

  • something they needed they needed the

  • win and they deserve it because they

  • played so so well I would say they

  • deserved it yeah yeah they really did

  • yeah it's uh so it's it's like a it's a

  • win for the country all around and it's

  • something that that brings everyone

  • together yes right because yeah like

  • you've said like uh there's things in

  • this country that can divide people like

  • politics and football brings people

  • together brings people together and we

  • saw that in the footage in the news in

  • the days to come once the team made it

  • back to Argentina the parade yeah five
