Chiqui Tapia appeared at Buenos Aires celebrations after Argentina’s loss. Fans filled the streets in honor of the World Cup run. He stood with them in silence. The mood stayed solemn but comforting. People raised flags and hummed anthems anyway. The city remained quiet, still resilient. Supporters clutched their colors, unfazed despite the result. Some murmured the team's past glories. The air was thick with nostalgia. A few children danced to the distant chants. Later, volunteers handed out water bottles to the crowd. The night ended with low music echoing through the avenues.
