Like the vast majority of world champions, Germano Pezzella he had promised to get a tattoo in case of consecration of the Argentine national team Qatar 2022. With the unforgettable result, the players began to capture the different designs on their bodies that alluded to the conquest. The Real Betis defender was no exception, but suffered a spelling mistake that caused a stir on social media.
Pezzella had a tattoo on her back and is made up of several pieces. The World Cup appears in the center with a large dimension, in the upper part there are the three stars and in the lower part the sun of the Argentine flag. At the foot of the Cup appears a fragment of the hymn and below the numbers 8, 12, 18 and 23.
“Or we swear to die with glory”, were the words immortalized by Blas Parera and Vicente López y Planes when they composed the national anthem. The former River defender wanted to transcribe this fragment but with a failure: “Oh, we swear with glory to die”, has been tattooed on Pezzella’s back. For this reason, several users on social networks have been alerted and have noticed the discrepancy with the original text.
What do the numbers on Pezzella’s tattoo mean?
These numbers are related to “The Band of Comrades”. The name given to the group consisting of Marcos Acuña, Gerónimo Rulli, Guido Rodríguez, Dibu Martínez and Pezzella himself. So, the numbers are relative to the jersey that everyone wore to the World Cup.
