A comparative look at the behavior of Celtic and Rácing players in the decisive final match

Piernes, who had been critical of Rácing during the first two matches, does an about-face and praises the team for becoming the first Argentine world champion club in fútbol. He cautions that this game must be analyzed slower before more praise is given. As far as "anti-fútbol", Rácing and Celtic were both responsible but Celtic players lost their cool much more frequently. In this “vendetta” climate, a European champion lost its balanced play, and the "war" that had already been declared broke out quickly with fouls on both sides. Football did not win today, but Rácing dominated the field.
