Worst part? Egypt showed how susceptible Argentina is on the back end once you get up on them. They press and counter attacks are easy on them then.


Messi’s equalizer goal was because two midfielders wouldn’t defend the box so they could be available for a quick counter.

The worst part of Tuchel's disasterclass: if you're gonna park the bus at LEAST put someone on to man mark Messi

Honestly, I thought it was just Ronaldo fans and Brazilians denying this after 2022.

Evidently not. Argentina was never beat by anyone so far in this world cup.

As someone who has seen both of them play in person several times, Messi is
better. Pele outclassed players of his time, but Messi is another level.

I love this comparison

Physical dominance, longevity leading to huge stats, unlikable narcissist. Wants deep down to be called the best ever so much it eats at him and yet he never will be by most.

Sure was.
Watched the 2nd goal go in, then had chances late to cross the ball and had two horrible kicks with everyone waiting in the box.

Major difference is lebron has the 4th most assists of all time. Ronaldo only has 156 assists in 24 seasons.

Its okay to go defensive but not concede all the possession and create nothing for the last 20-30 minutes of the game.


People hated Pep's great city teams because they would just pass you to death to see out games and it can be very boring.
