What was in fashion the last time Argentina won the World Cup? 36 years separate Maradona from Messi
In the streets and alleys of Buenos Aires and Argentina in general, the echo of the Seleccion's World Cup victory continues to resound loudly, joyously and noisily. The repressed euphoria of the Albiceleste people after 36 years of waiting for the World Cup has exploded resoundingly and seems to have no end. The party has been going on for days even in the home of Argentina's heroes of the legendary success in Qatar, culminating with victory in the final against the now former champions France. The photo posted by Lionel Messi holding the trophy has become the most liked post in Instagram history in a matter of hours, with the numbers seemingly unstoppable. A social world, and that of the web in general, that was not even imaginable at the time of Argentina's last World Cup success in 1986, when it was Diego Armando Maradona who raised the cup to the sky. So, what was it that was fashionable 36 years ago?

From a Motorola DynaTac, a phone the size of a shoebox, the first historic call was made from a mobile phone in New York in 1973. The company then managed to detach it from the cumbersome machine that one had to carry around, and in 1986 there were those who could boast of walking around with the model 8000X: the first device that could be considered portable. It was nicknamed the 'brick phone' because of its long, squarish shape and with a 10-hour recharge it allowed around 60 minutes of conversation.
To take music with you in those years, on the other hand, it was the Walkman, the cassette player created by Akio Morita, Masaru Ibuka and Kozo Ōsone, and produced by Sony, that was very popular. Playing in the headphones of the young people of the time were Duran Duran, Madonna with her very fresh 'La Isla Bonita' and the winner of that Sanremo Festival, Eros Ramazzotti.
