Just four years ago, the Argentina national team lifted the World Cup. Today, against a Spain side that played a perfect match, it faced something much harder to swallow: losing.
And that is where Leandro Paredes fell short. Frustration got the better of him, and he ended up shouting at the Spanish players in front of him, including Gavi.
The images show him grabbing him by the neck, pulling on his shirt, looking for a fight right on the pitch. His own teammates and Lionel Scaloni had to step in to separate him.
Because football is also about that: knowing how to lose with a cool head, something Paredes completely lost sight of this time.
