Rodrigo De Paul has spoken about the Argentina national team and how people wanted to see Argentina lose.

De Paul started for the Argentina national team in their 1-0 loss in the World Cup final. The Argentine posted the following on his Instagram:

“The greatest pain comes from not being able to bring the World Cup back home to our country because if anyone deserved to experience that feeling once again, it was you.

“But as the hours go by, we are beginning to realize that the connection you have with this group goes far beyond the trophy and that’s what I want to hold on to as I navigate this moment.

“Today, I look at how many people were waiting for this defeat, spending the entire World Cup spreading unfounded conspiracy theories to ease the pain of not being able to experience what all Argentinians were experiencing. Because our smiles bother them. Because the way we are bothers them. But all that did was reaffirm that the passion and love we have for our jersey can overcome anything.

“It will hurt for a long time but today, more than ever, I am proud to be Argentinian.”

“As time passes, you realize there’s something much bigger than a result. For years, this group has represented our country in the best possible way. It has shown that competing isn’t just about winning but about giving everything for the jersey and never giving up.

“I’m proud to be part of a group that has always stood up, competed at the highest level and defended these colors with pride, humility and commitment.

“I want to thank all the Argentine fans. Thank you for always being there, for supporting us in every match, for your love, for your unconditional support and for making us feel at home anywhere in the world.

“Wearing my country’s jersey is the greatest honor of my career and I will continue giving everything every time I get the chance to defend it.”
