Congrats  

 

So Ecuador was at the end eliminated by eventual champions, so the performance at the event will be assesed somewhat more pleasantly

Looks like our Argentinian friends have lived long enough to see Messi win one for the NT

 

I still remember the previous triumph, the Batistuta & Redondo generation

I'm 13 days older than you, so that probably makes me the oldest person in this forum, I guess?

This morning Facebook reminded me that 5 years ago Ronaldo also wins his first and last till now continental title. So 10th of July seems to be historical date

Almost 3 AM. People needed to celebrate a win here.

Maybe not many old-timers here but I remember Batistuta playing for Fiorentina I don't remember much from 1986 World Cup (still had some fancy stickers from that) but 1990 World Cup was the first one I watched in full. Not exactly what Argentina wants to remember though

Oh man! I watched the WC in 1990. Goycochea and Caniggia was my favorite players!

In one way I’m sad that Brazil didn’t won because I also cheer for them (Portuguese speaking brothers, our “país irmão”), but in the other hand it’s good to see finally Messi win a trophy with Argentina

 

It’s nice to see the two best of their time winning all the trophies and it would be really unfair if Messi didn’t ended up having a NT title like Ronaldo.
