Argentina

South American Argentina is one of those countries where football means everything. Also, occasional football watchers will probably be familiar with the name Diego Maradona, who is still a bit of a quirky figure in Argentine football today, if only from the stands. But Argentina has a whole host of other famous names. Argentina's national team play in a combination of light blue and white national colours, and the Antonio Vespucio Liberti stadium is used for their home matches. Argentina's men's A team falls under the Argentine Football Association.
