Messi, the Scaloneta and the most amazing party in history

sight Messi sitting on the highest part of the back of the bus, he feels it, savors it with the smile that creates the most happiness… Look scaloni in the front sector of the bus, they feel, they enjoy it more, waving, holding their heads, sometimes jumping and singing like another fan. Dibu Martínez, De Paul, Di María, Paredes, Julián Álvarez, Lautaro, Papu Gómez, all… The world champions want to celebrate in their country, with their people. They are there. They wanted it and they had it.

If what they inspired on the ball was majestic, what they created in the Argentines was greater, so they drew the largest popular demonstration in history in the land where Leo was born. Yes, this is a caravan for memories. Superior compared to the revolution of Maradona and the champions of Mexico of 86. Superior if you put it in a mirror to the return of democracy in 1983. Unique. Incomparable. Not complete either…

It is impossible to calculate how many millions of fans gathered on the highways and byways to watch the passing of the micro convertible. Police sources estimated that some 5 million people they vibrated with Leo and his children… Everyone was overwhelmed that the caravan had not completed even 20 percent of the set route. The champions didn’t even reach the Obelisk nor to Pink House or at the intersection of 25 de Mayo highway and 9 de Julio avenue, three of the destinations at different times have been announced for soccer players to meet.

The caravan, which had reached more than four hours, was suspended at 3:53 pm, when the president of AFA, Claudio Tapia, in his networks he posted: “They don’t let us congratulate all the people who are in the Obelisk. The same security agencies that escorted us did not allow us to move forward. A thousand apologies on behalf of all champion players. What a pity”. Yes, of course, chiki make a difference. He only thanked the security of the province of Buenos Aires for escort to the entrance to the Federal Capital. A message of disagreement on the security of Buenos Aires and the Nation. There was a lack of coordinated action between the forces. There is still a lack of understanding. Something like this might happen…

A few minutes before, a young man jumped from a bridge and fell just inside the champions’ bus and near Leo Messi. Another tried the same thing, but not in time: he hit his back and landed on the asphalt. Those two photos also served as the trigger for the suspension.

The champions were diverted from the freeway Dellepiane to him Rock Parkwhere three helicopters of Federal police to charge the champions. They made an overflight in the areas of Obelisk and the most crumbling roads. Originally they should be able to make a landing on Government house to greet from the same balcony where Maradona he did so in 1986. But that option was set aside. The intention to keep the National Team away from politics is more weighty. In a divided society, the team’s motto during the World Cup was “All together”. And they don’t want to break it. Then, the helicopters returned Messi and his companions in the concentration of the AFA in Ezeiza.

A collection walk ended. At speed, on the bus decorated with golden letters that read “world champions”, along with the three stars and the Cup, of course. With Messi and co above, waving happily as they drink fernet with coke.

As the Obelisk Very early bursting with people, the route changes. Each new sector that was announced as a possible stop was immediately covered by a flood of people moving from one side to the other. All fueled by the national holiday had ordered the night before. But the caravan was suspended. Many were left wanting to see the champions up close. That image is also missing from a certain site of Buenos Aires from Leo and the cup with his companions. It’s not complete, but it’s still the most amazing party. They did it.
