“Muchachos” has become a hugely popular unofficial anthem of Argentine fans at the World Cup.
Fernando Romero, a fan of Argentina’s Racing Club, adapted an old song by the pop band La Mosca to support the national team. Romero said the song came to him after the death of Maradona and Argentina’s triumph in the Copa America against Brazil at the Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro.
Argentina mourned the captain of the team that won the 1986 World Cup when he died in November 2020 at the age of 60. In July 2021, the team coached by Lionel Scaloni and led by Messi won the Copa America for Argentina’s first title in 28 years. The song has become so popular that it has been sung by Messi, who said in an interview it was his favorite fan song.“In Argentina I was born, land of Diego and Lionel, of the guys of the Malvinas I will never forget,” says another part of the song that pays homage to those killed in the war against Britain.
