It was one of the craziest parties football has ever seen!
At Argentina’s World Cup celebrations in Buenos Aires, around five million people ensured an absolute state of emergency. All the laws seemed to be unhinged.
Nicolás Otamendi (34) may have thought so too. As the Spanish “Marca” and some fans on social networks speculate, the “Albiceleste” defender rolled a joint at the victory celebration. A video should prove that.

The footage shows the Argentina stars before their bus ride through the cheering crowds of Buenos Aires fans. First, Rodrigo de Paul (28) can be seen filming himself while drinking from a cup. Then the perspective changes – de Paul now focuses on his teammates.
Among other things, you can see: Otamendi, who has put on black sunglasses with a thick frame and wears a black cap. He moves his hands to his mouth. It seems as if he is rolling a cigarette – or a joint. Many social media users are certain: it was the latter.
Cannabis is still illegal in Argentina!
Users criticized the behavior of the Benfica player and considered it irresponsible. Many didn’t even care whether it was a joint or a cigarette. It was agreed that the player should not smoke at all.
