A pilot played a prank on Argentine passengers during a flight, announcing that Lionel Messi's team had won the World Cup. In reality, the title went to the Spanish squad, who triumphed 1-0 after extra time.
Some passengers, clearly eager to learn the outcome of the 2026 World Cup final, couldn't wait to land to find out the result. Thousands of feet above the ground, they were anticipating news, but someone decided to have some fun at their expense. In a video circulating on social media, a pilot makes a special announcement to declare the tournament winner.
“I know the match was fiercely contested right to the very end, including extra time. Both teams gave their all. But, unfortunately, in a World Cup final, there can only be one winner. So, we want to congratulate our compatriots, the Argentinians,” he announced, sparking wild celebrations among the 'Albiceleste' fans, who jumped from their seats. Evidently, they hadn't opted for an in-flight internet connection.
