Tigre Displays Banner Congratulating Argentine National Team After World Cup Final

Club Atlético Tigre honored the Argentine national football team by unfurling a banner before their Copa Sudamericana playoff match against Nacional of Uruguay. The players from the Victoria-based club entered the field carrying a banner that proclaimed, "Champions are those who never give up... Thank you, National Team."

The gesture of support came after Argentina's 1-0 defeat to Spain in the final of the 2026 World Cup, a result that saw Lionel Scaloni's squad finish as runners-up. Tigre also shared their message on social media, accompanying it with an Argentine flag and a heart emoji, stating, "For teaching us that we must never give up. Thank you, National Team!"

The club expressed gratitude to the president of the Argentine Football Association (AFA), Claudio Tapia, and the president of CONMEBOL, Alejandro Domínguez, for granting permission to display the banner during the international fixture. This initiative joined other expressions of support for the Argentine squad following their near-miss in securing a second consecutive World Cup title.
