Facts

  • Argentina reached the Final in their first FIFA World Cup™ in 1930, losing 2-4 to Uruguay. Between 1929 and 1959, the team won the Copa America 12 times, but FIFA World Cup success still eluded them until.

  • The breakthrough for the Albiceleste came in 1978 when they lifted the FIFA World Cup for the first time on home soil. Mario Kempes scored twice in a memorable Final against Holland. Argentina repeated the feat

  • in 1986 thanks to the genius of Diego Maradona. They reached the Final again in 1990, only to see an Andi Brehme penalty seal victory for Germany.
