I went on El Clarin to see how the team was looking for tomorrow's friendly against Bielorrussia. Of course the big story is how Argentina humiliated Brazil with a 3-0 result. Some headlines:

"Celebrations at the bar, after the "thrashing" of the Brazil national team"
Cargadas y festejos en el bar, tras la "paliza" de la Selección a Brasil,

"Like some portenos usually do, many Brazilian tourists chose a known place in Recoleta to see the semi-final. For Brasil, sadness "has no end" ("nao tem fim")in Buenos Aires either.

Como suelen hacerlo algunos porteños, muchos turistas brasileños eligieron un conocido local de Recoleta para ver la semifinal. Allí cruzaron expectativas, bromas y broncas con los simpatizantes locales. Para Brasil, la tristeza "nao tem fim" tampoco en Buenos Aires. ------ El Clarin .com August 19, 2008

"Has no end" refers to the lyrics "Tristeza nao tem fim, felicidade sim," of the the popular Brazilian bossa nova song called "Felicidade" music: Tom Jobim, lyrics Vinicius de Moraes.

"The national team humilitated Brazil and arrived to the final of the Olympic games"
La Selección humilló a Brasil y llegó a la final de los Juegos Olímpicos ----- El Clarin .com August 19, 2008
