Este milagro llamado Racing

Summary of Racing's victories over Celtic that gave it the Copa Intercontinental-the first time an Argentine team is crowned world champion

The language in this article is worth noting The same type of "anti-football", violent, and deplorable style of play that El Grafico-for years-had condemned, is now a sign of courage, temperament, and lessons learned By quoting players in the 1930 World Cup final, who justified their physical approach to the immediacy of a championship match, Juvenal justifies how Racing played Also, the British are accused of instigating the violence and are characterized in sarcastic tones This article never bothers to examine what benefit a squad like Celtic, who had the advantage, possessed in instigating a fight One paragraphbriefly mentions the Celtic goalkeepers' injury at the hands of an hincha Juvenal also states that the Celtic players hit when the ball was not around, something he had seen by other Europeans at the 1966 World Cup He says that this proves there is nothing "noble" about the European style of play, and that Argentine players hit hard, but near the ball [This is proven false in the videos of the match]
