One lucky Argentina fan lost his wallet at the World Cup. While that may not sound like good luck, there was no better place for him to lose it.
Supporters of La Albiceleste made sure that it ended up back in the right hands!
The World Cup has shown that soccer fans are the most creative. They can create new chants for any topic at any time.
Argentina fans completely took over AT&T Stadium in Dallas.
The group stage of the World Cup finished up in Texas on Saturday night. Argentina played Jordan to close things out.
Fans of La Albiceleste arrived to Dallas on Friday to greet the team outside of their hotel.

The reigning world champions chose to rest some of their starters during the match but Lionel Messi came off of the bench in the second half after Jordan cut the score to one goal. The crowd went bonkers.

Although the players eventually went back into the locker room, the fans did not leave.
Who lost their wallet?!
Argentina defeated Jordan by a final score of 3-1. Its supporters gathered in the concourse to celebrate. There were hundreds, if not thousands of them who stayed long after the match was over to sing and dance the night away.

One man had his wallet fall out of his pocket amidst all of the chaos. The wallet was found on the ground and a different fan picked it up. He alerted his fellow countrymen of the missing wallet. They joined together to chant for the owner.
Their song worked! The rightful owner of the wallet returned to the scene and claimed what was his.
JAJAJA, un hincha argentino PIERDE LA BILLETERA, arman una canción con el nombre del dueño, lo encuentran y pasa esto.

MOMENTAZO TOTAL. 😅🇦🇷 pic.twitter.com/yADAraczjU
The lost wallet in Dallas resembled a similar situation at an Arsenal match earlier this year. Just switch out the wallet for keys.
This World Cup has been awesome thus far. Argentina fans took it to another level in Dallas on Saturday and they returned the missing wallet to the guy who lost it. That’s awesome.
