Argentina coach slams chaotic 'scandal' at Olympic soccer match vs Morocco

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Morocco’s passionate fans have been a highlight of the Olympic men’s soccer tournament, with their vibrant colors and energetic chants drawing attention from around the world. However, when it comes to sheer numbers and atmosphere, Argentina takes the cake.

Morocco’s matches against France and South Korea have drawn huge crowds, with the team’s supporters proudly wearing their country’s green and white jerseys. The Moroccan fans’ infectious energy has helped propel their team to a strong start in the tournament, including a 4-2 win over France.

But Argentina’s fan base is on another level. The country has a rich soccer tradition, and its fans have been flocking to the Maracanã Stadium to cheer on their beloved Albiceleste. Argentina has played three matches so far in the tournament, including a thrilling 3-1 win over Egypt, and each game has drawn massive crowds.

The atmosphere at the Maracanã has been electric, with Argentine fans waving flags, blowing horns, and singing chants throughout the games. The noise level has been deafening at times, with the crowd’s energy helping to propel Argentina’s players to victory.

Morocco’s coach, Houcine Zemmamouche, praised his team’s fans for their support, but acknowledged that Argentina’s fan base is a step above.

“Our fans are amazing,” Zemmamouche said. “But Argentina’s fans are something else. They’re incredible.”
