Leandro Paredes has spoken about Argentina losing the 2026 World Cup, stating clearly that Spain were the better team. This comes as many fans and pundits continue to link Argentina’s defeat to various conspiracy theories.
Speaking to the media, this was his statement:
“The truth is, we don’t need to explain anything. We played in the World Cup final, and I’ll say it again: Spain were the better team. They played an excellent match and deserved to win. There’s nothing more for us to add.”
