ASF Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 I've read people saying Argentina are clear favorites for this one, but I don't agree with that, especially after what we've seen from them so far, with lackluster performances. In five previous games, two wins each and one draw, in 2006. Holland to end Messi's dream of WC glory. 2-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waylander Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 I agree the Netherlands look the more dangerous team and should be the favourites just a gut feeling that Argentina will pull something out of the bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Pyfish+ Posted December 8, 2022 Subscriber Share Posted December 8, 2022 Netherlands have impressed so far whilst Argentina haveb't got up to the gear you'd expect from them yet. Cody Gakpo to cause them some real issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Profesor Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 I think this dutch team is very dangerous. van Gaal has built a really tough team to beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azeem Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Even if Argentina lose tonight, Messi is 35 he can definitely play the next WC. Besides he already threaten to quit Argentina twice but came back ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machado Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 This game is going exactly as expected. Can we skip to the shoot out already? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Well it's 1-0 to Van Gaal already because he's suckered in Scaloni to changing Argentina's shape to match the Dutch threat. In doing so, it's at the detriment of his best player who isn't in the game at all. Argentina need to change this shape at HT. It's not working for Messi and it's not working for them, and going by how influential one man has been for this team, I'd be trying to switch tactics to get the best out of your talisman.

Azeem Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 I'm going to sleep. The game will remain in this slow tempo. Dutch might get some luck like Croatia, deflection or penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devil-Dick Willie Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Argentina have begun opperation 'we have a 1-0 lead let's stroll around the pitch' If the Dutch lose from here they deserve to be dumped out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Profesor Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 So, the dutch strategy is roof the ball to thw big guys and pray. Makes sense, their team is much taller than the argentinian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
