The days pass, and an entire country refuses to go down to the ground.

Argentina is still in the clouds after the wonderful victory in the World Cup, and further evidence of the degree of admiration for the great star Lionel Messi could be obtained last night (Tuesday), from a unique survey carried out in the country.



2,500 people were asked whether they would vote for Faroush as the new president of Argentina.

No less than 44 percent gave a positive answer, alongside 17.5 percent who answered "maybe".

Only 37.8 percent do not want it.



But that's not all.

The polling company submitted to the 2,500 respondents a list of ten senior politicians, alongside Messi, and asked which of them was the most worthy to serve as the next president of Argentina.

Not surprisingly, the footballer finished first with 37 percent of the vote.

Next after him, the extreme rightist Javier Millay, won 12 percent of the votes.

The former president and current vice president, Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, received 11 percent.

more popular than ever.

Admiration for Messi is not only reflected in polls.

Since winning the World Cup, more and more fans are tattooing the image of the flea on their bodies.

"For the next two weeks, all my appointments are related to the World Cup," said tattooist Asten Vecinovich to the AFP news agency.

"Some have already made appointments to tattoo snakes or skulls on themselves, but they switched to Messi or the Cup. I have two or three appointments a day."
