Hold your horses, dude. You won’t believe it. FIFA, that always plays dumb, dropped a bomb that has us all upside down. In the Egypt vs Iran match, which closes Group G, entry of LGTB flags will be allowed. Yes, as you read it. In a match that is already a pressure cooker due to politics, gender, and sports, now this seasoning is added that reminds us of La Scaloneta when they break it all.
What does Argentina have to do with this? Nothing, but the Argentine fan is always aware of others’ messes. And if there’s a FIFA decision that sparks controversy, we, the owners of the ball, have our say. Because here there’s no neutrality: we are Messi’s team, the sky blue and white, and everything that happens in the World Cup concerns us.
The reality is that the match between Egyptians and Iranians is more anticipated than a local classic. Not only for football, but because two countries that can’t stand each other even in trading cards clash. And now, with this LGTB flag thing, FIFA wants to show it’s modern, that it fights for human rights. But is it really or is it smoke? Because we know FIFA always has double standards.
The truth is that fans will be able to bring their flags without fear of them being confiscated. In other matches there was repression, but here the organization said yes. Could it be that a huge mess is coming? Hopefully everything is peaceful, because what matters here is football. But let’s not play dumb either: this is political, and politics always gets onto the pitch.
From La Scaloneta’s fanbase, we say: we support freedom of expression, but watch out they don’t try to make us lose focus. The World Cup is for playing football, for celebrating, for suffering. Let it not turn into a circus. Still, if Argentina becomes champion, we don’t give a damn about everything else.
So now you know: this match promises. Egypt vs Iran, with LGTB flags, with FIFA in the middle, and with us, Argentines, watching from the corner of our eye while we prepare the fernet for the next Scaloneta match. Let’s go Argentina, damn it!
