General ecstasy throughout Argentinamore specifically in its capital. Buenos Aires hasn’t stopped being a party since Sunday the selection of Leo Messi will win the World Cup. The festivities are concentrated especially in the Obeliskone of the largest tourist spots in the city.
Just as it happened from Sunday night to Monday, this morning there was a large concentration of fans around him. A large number of people continued to celebrate the success of their team, despite the fact that the players and the coaching staff will not offer the title on the streets until noon this Tuesday.
So many parties have left the occasional dangerous image, but none as much as the one that took place on top of the Obelisk itself. One fan climbed to the top of the monument and climbed up the outside of its top. He put his life on the line 68 meters from the ground.
