Argentina, a team that looked like it had no chance of moving on from the group stage of the 2018 FIFA World Cup, was able to qualify after a late 2-1 win over Nigeria, combined with a Croatia win over Iceland.
Thanks to the two results, the South American giants finished second in Group D in what Lionel Messi and Argentina fans will remember as a small miracle.
This user @MrCocoyam tweeted this video after Nigeria’s painful loss to Argentina.
The video of him changing a cardigan with Nigeria inscription into a cardigan with the inscription “Ghana” went viral.
