After Papu Gomez’s doping scandal, journalist Tomas Roncero asked to strip Lionel Messi and Argentina of their World Cup title.
Famous Spanish journalist asked to strip Messi and Argentina of their World Cup title
Tomas Roncero still cannot accept that Lionel Messi and Argentina won the 2022 World Cup title in Qatar.
During the tournament in the Middle East, journalists from AS and El Chiringuito TV made statements against the Albiceleste. He once expressed his desire to see Argentina lose to Australia, the Netherlands, Croatia or France.
But as you know, Argentina won the World Cup and won the third star in history. Obviously this is a very heavy blow for Roncero, who after the tournament in Qatar said more than once that the referee favored Scaloni’s team.
Now, with Papu Gomez testing positive for doping, he once again attacked Argentina through a post on his personal page.
Tomas Roncero asked to strip Argentina of the World Cup title
“They should be stripped of the World Cup title. Argentina played with a player using stimulants in the squad,” Roncero wrote.
Roncero is famous for being a Real Madrid fan. Therefore, it is understandable why he does not like Messi in particular and the Argentina team in general.
As for Papu Gomez, this player was banned from playing for 2 years on October 20. The 35-year-old winger failed an anti-doping test at Sevilla in October 2022 – two months before the 2022 World Cup kicked off. However, this player was still allowed to participate in Qatar and won the championship with La Albiceleste.
