Muchachos is iconic. Argentine football is full of iconic songs, but I think this one is above the rest because of its association with the last World Cup. Ironically it doesn’t make sense anymore, because centers around the hope for a third star, which Argentina now has (though there is a version with tweaked lyrics that celebrate having won that third star).
