Semi Finals

[Martin Alvito]

Argentines had their own Benny Hill moment there, but got away with it.

Argentina shifting into shorten-the-game and save-it-for-defending mode, now. Smart cynical foul by Messi there - just enough to force the stoppage, not enough to prompt a card.

 

[LinekersLegs]

Not sure if Croatia have 3 goals in them but if they get 1 you’d wonder how Argentinian nerves would hold

2 cynical counter attack preventing fouls from Messi & no yellow... glad he never came to the prem - be arsed with the untouchable status

 

[Furey1878]

Mad how much more of a unit this Argentina team look. All the other superstars they've had in Messi's time, Aguero, Di Maria, Higuain, Macherano...

 

[Rita_Poon]

Yep, easy yellow, and thats both sides booked. Would have been a Christmas miracle for these to not go in the book at least once...

That's what I am counting on, a Croatia goal to set the final act up.

Argentina just too accomplished at getting players between the ball and the goal. Croatia can't get a sight of goal.
