Godoy Cruz fans came to Santiago 2 days ago

and caused some disturbances and shouted songs about the Falklands and how Chile and Pinochet helped the British. I have some Argentine friends on my facebook though, one of them is a good friend and I speak to her reguarly and she says there are many people in Argentina that don't support the idea of claiming the Falklands and the Argentine government needs to concentrate on national issues and problems and avoid another financial crisis rather than get involved in an issue and possible war they won't win.

The Argentine government has made some very unnecessary moves, such as attempting to name the new Argentine football season after the Malvinas.
