Argentina (English)

ISBN: 9798889895985

Soccer power Argentina won the FIFA World Cup in 1978, 1986, and 2022; a rarely matched feat. Two giants of “the beautiful game”—Diego Maradona and Lionel Messi—call the country home. Maradona scored the “Goal of the Century” in 1986, while Messi earned eight Ballon d’Ors, far more than any other professional soccer player. This elementary-level title follows “La Albiceleste” through fast-paced matches as they “tango” their way into the hearts of fans worldwide. Vibrant layouts spotlight players of different eras, and an “About the Team” section recaps important facts. Includes a glossary and index.
