Both of them, wearing their training clothes, went to the center of the field and once there they began to taste candies. This practice became common a long time ago in La Scaloneta and was a fixture during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Sometimes accompanied by Alejandro “Papu” Gómez, today absent due to injury, and other times by the prop Mario De Stéfano, De Paul and Paredes kept up the cabal even in a friendly, which served as a great excuse to party with the fans.
The world champions stayed for several minutes contemplating the party in the stands. The fans sang the song “Muchachos”, they became effusive in unison with the cry: “He who does not jump is an Englishman!” and they fired the players with: “Argentina, Argentina!”
