An Argentine Shows How He Snuck into the Copa América Final
A video of an Argentine fan went viral after the possible sanctions for those who entered the Copa América final without a ticket were announced, where Messi was crowned a two-time champion of America, and social media quickly criticized him.
The Argentine photographer, Santiago Riback, recorded on his social networks how he tried to sneak into the final, being one of thousands of fans without a ticket, which caused many others to lose thousands of dollars for not being able to even enter the event they had invested their savings and effort into.
"Find this guy and let the full weight of the law fall on him. It's because of people like him that good people couldn't enjoy the Copa América final." This is one of the most popular comments on the matter, and it is from a Mexican content creator who spoke out about it.
The great journey that the Argentine photographer recorded culminated with him seated in one of the seats belonging to one of the thousands of fans who lost the opportunity to see the final despite having bought their ticket.
"I'm about to sneak into the game, yes, sneak in. I wanted to buy tickets, but they were about $3,000, but of course, I want to go to the game, I mean, I live here, how could I not want to go?" These are the words with which Riback tried to justify his actions that could even lead to his deportation as a consequence of having prevented many fans with tickets from seeing the final.
