Does the Brazil loss double or triple the pressure on Argentina?

The Di Maria loss doubles the pressure on Argentina

Aguero is fit though, but do Maria matters more with Argentina having enough forwards.

I don't think Argentina is too worried about having a South American team in the final as much as they want to be in the final for Argentina.

You could say there's more pressure on the Netherlands now to have an all European final. I don't think there is any added pressure to either country though.

Aguero's been a walking injury the entire season. Most of his injuries have been muscle related. I wouldn't want to count on him for 90.

I think Brazil loss lessens the pressure tbh.

Not to mention, he's looked like shite during the World Cup. IMO

To answer OP's question, no. It does not increase the pressure on Argentina whatsoever. They wanted to win before, they want to win now. Brazil's loss has no effect on them.

Having Brazil lose the way they did was an awesome bonus, but the pressure is the same (the pressure was pretty burdensome to begin with). Argentina has history with Germany and the Netherlands.

I'm worried about not having DiMaria. I'm afraid Sabella is going to go with a very defensive lineup.

No doubt, as well as a defensive strategy. Netherlands will be able to overcome Argentina's boring tactics, though.

A quick Netherlands goal or two will cause a lot of people to stop breathing for a while.
