Paredes humiliates Rodrygo

Rodrygo Goes got aggressive and was then mocked by his opponent during Brazil's 1-4 loss to Argentina in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers on the morning of March 26.

Paredes mocked Rodrygo for not having won a title at the national team level.

The incident took place in the first half of Argentina's match against Brazil, when Rodrygo ran past Leandro Paredes and said: "You are a bad guy". Immediately, the Argentine midfielder responded: "I have 1 World Cup, 2 Copa America, and you, just zero".

In addition to taunting Rodrygo, Paredes was also involved in a scuffle at the end of the first half. After witnessing Nicolas Tagliafico being pushed by Raphinha, the AS Roma midfielder rushed forward and pushed the Brazilian player, after which the two sides got into a heated argument.

The "South American Super Classic" match did not go as expected by fans, when Argentina showed superior strength against their great rival.

The reigning world champions scored three goals in the first half, through Julian Alvarez, Enzo Fernandez and Alexis Mac Allister. On the other hand, Brazil only managed to reduce the gap through Mattheus Cunha.

In the second half, the "Samba Dancer" watched helplessly as the home team performed the Tango. After a series of missed opportunities, Argentina sealed a 4-1 victory with a goal by Giuliano Simeone in the 71st minute. This was the first time since 1959 that Argentina had scored four goals against Brazil in a match.

This result helps Argentina maintain the top position in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in South America. However, this is not too important, because Lionel Messi and his teammates have already secured tickets to North America next year.

Meanwhile, Brazil dropped to fourth place and is still at risk of having to play the play-offs.
