## Resource

118. La Albiceleste: : A History of the Argentina National Team We're joined by Dr. Mark Orton to cover the history of la Albiceleste - The Argentina Men's National Football Team. Since playing their first ever match against Uruguay in 1902, the Argentina National Team have went from strength to strength, but with some noticeable peaks and troughs in between. We speak about the history of the national team, the social, political and economic conditions throughout the history of Argentina which left their mark on football, and the culture of national team support which exists in Argentina and is unlike any other support in the world.
