Chiqui Tapia turned up at Buenos Aires celebrations after Argentina’s loss. Fans filled the streets to celebrate the World Cup run. He stood with them speechless. The mood stayed somber yet warm. People brandished flags and sang songs anyway. The city remained quiet, still resilient. Supporters held their colors, unfazed despite the result. Some recalled the team's past glories. The air was thick with reflective silence. A few children skipped to the distant chants. Later, volunteers distributed water bottles to the crowd. The night ended with gentle music echoing through the avenues.
