Argentina: Spanish Edition - Library Binding

by Jason Olson (Author)

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, translated into North American Spanish, 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.
