Benin Messi farewell match payment

So the Argentine Football Association reportedly handed over a symbolic amount for that farewell match, and that was basically it. Romain Molina says the payment was purely token, while the Beninese side was sold the whole thing as a historic occasion, an "experience" for the Argentine people. What F.B.F. BENIN actually walked away with: nothing extra. No bonus money. No cut of the revenue the game generated. Nobody swapped shirts. Nobody posed for pictures with the Argentina squad. And the locker room stayed closed to them. Reportedly the delegation was furious about how they were handled across the event. Honestly, can you blame them? UNACCEPTABLE?
