Argentine : la finale perdue contre l’Espagne tourne au drame, deux supporters perdent la vie
Argentina's defeat to Spain in the 2026 World Cup final left a bitter taste in the mouths of the entire nation. In Buenos Aires, thousands of fans gathered around the iconic Obelisk to celebrate the Albiceleste's journey and show their support for Lionel Messi and his teammates despite the loss of the world title.
But what was meant to be a moment of unity and recognition gradually turned into an evening of tension. According to the Argentinian media outlet Olé, clashes broke out between some members of the crowd and law enforcement. To regain control of the situation, the Buenos Aires police deployed a significant force, using tear gas, rubber bullets, batons, and a riot control vehicle to disperse the protesters.
According to initial reports, the clashes began after the arrest of a supporter, an event that quickly provoked anger among several people present at the scene and led to an escalation of tensions.
Beyond the violence, the evening was marked by a particularly tragic toll. Emergency services in the SAME region announced the deaths of two supporters, aged 67 and 88, who suffered cardiac arrests during the broadcast of the final. Several other people were also treated for fainting spells, falls, or injuries related to the crowd surges and clashes near the Obelisk.
What was meant to be a tribute to the Argentinian finalist team turned into a night of chaos and mourning in the capital, where the sadness of defeat gave way to deep emotion.
