FMSOM TV Club: Al Grito de Guerra Ep 5: La Sombra Albiceleste

The fifth episode of Al Grito de Guerra talks about the lopsided rivalry against powerhouse Argentina. The South American giants have become Mexico’s most prominent nemesis and the doc shows the tough elimination from the 2006 and 2010 World Cups, and although Mexico played well and gave some great performances, the result was the same in the end. It’s another bitter ending as Mexico is set to meet them again in 2022, this time in the group stage.

Spoiler Alert

The episode begins with the story about the historic change in Argentinean nationals in the 1970s, with the rise of the Military junta in Argentina.
