Sung in Spanish, the song says “f***ing English in the Falklands,” in direct reference to the conflict Britain and Argentina had over the island in 1982. The 74-day conflict saw 649 Argentine military personnel, 255 British military personnel, and three Falkland Islanders killed.
It also mentions Argentina’s Copa America victory in Brazil last year, giving extra special attention to their victory over Tite’s side in the final. In full, the main verse of the song reads, "Brazilian, what happened, the five-time champions screwed up. Messi went to Rio and left with the Cup.
"We are the Argentine band and we will always cheer them on, because we have the dream of being the world champion. I'm like that, I am Argentinian, f***ing English in the Falklands, I don't forget. I'm like that, I encourage you, I follow Argentina everywhere."
No doubt the song has got thousands upon thousands of airings around the world following Argentina's World Cup win.
