His behavior after Argentina’s defeat in the World Cup final was widely — and rightly — criticized: Leandro Paredes certainly did not come across as a good loser and, naturally, faced plenty of backlash for it.Â
Even so, he has now made headlines again in a way that caused quite a stir.Â

Just five days after the World Cup final against Spain, he was already back on the pitch for his team — Boca Juniors — in the Copa Sudamericana, playing the full 90 minutes, while most of his national teammates are enjoying a well-deserved vacation.
And that was not all: he even provided the assist for Boca Juniors’ winning goal against O’Higgins.Â

In addition, various media reports recently fueled rumors that Paredes had played the last three matches of the World Cup with a cracked rib.Â
Either way, being back on the pitch just five days after such an exhausting tournament and giving everything for his club is certainly impressive.
Whether the football world will therefore forgive him so quickly for the incident involving Gavi after the final is probably something everyone has to decide for themselves.Â
