Congrats Argentina 🇦🇷 🎉 Sorry Dutches 😊
With Messi who ‘plays’ the referee you will never win
Hey I am here from Argentina
Did you say you would score 40 goals ? Cry now haha 😂
Hahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhhhhhqhahahahahahahhhhauahauauahah
This world cup is personal only Messi fans will understand
Don’t get me wrong Argentina are a great team with amazing players and a team that do not depend on messi and di maria. Nevertheless I see a balanced game Netherlands are a good team and should also be respected and can see them eliminating Argentina. I predicted that Morocco would eliminate Spain and I see this as a very balanced game…
USA proved how much they hate Qatar for outdoing their bid for the world cup.
They even had Mr Warner extradited over this 2022 world cup. But I say, allow the smaller countries to develop.
Why not host a world cup in the Carribbean 🥰
Call it what you like, but don't underestimate Messi, specially this time around. Argentina isn't rushing the WC,
The talent is there and the momentum building. Come Friday Messi going and damage this defence badly because Dimaria is gonna be a handful switch the flanks while Messi would be marked heavily making it easy for Martinez to score. This Friday is gonna be epic.
Bye bye argentina
VvD
I think Argentina should start Dybala as num 9 . If not , then play Alvarez . But may they not play Lautaro at any moment of the match , plz
i believe they will man mark messi with at least 2 or 3 players. this will leave a lot of space for argentina to capitalize on. I think Dybala should finally have his chance to shine as he is a playmaker that will help relieve messi’s playmaking abilities, also it’s completely possible he can play as a classic no 9. as he played back in his juve days
Messi de GOAT.
Knowing it is Van Gaal at the helm, Argentina better practicing their penalty kicks. Will be hilarious if they missed all the penalty shots like Spain did.
When they start talking about the amount of fans, you know that they fear Holland like no other. But…dont cry for me Argentina ( as we will win the freakin cup)
Whole of India stands behind messi in this match. Argentina's fans have increased 10 fold.
Netherlands were very good on the wing.
Argentina has already overcome the fear of defeat. Now there is no going back from their comeback
Argentina will win 🔥
Lets go Oranje, you got this!!! 🇳🇱🥳 proud regardless if its a win or defeat 👏🙌
netherlands will sit back and play negative football.
`Netherlands will win 2-1
Argentina will finish the game in 45 mins
Easy victory for the Netherlands🥱all this Talk about they can’t guard Messi is just stupid
Hope Argentina win 🙌🏽🇦🇷
If this game will continue to the penalty shootout like Croatia vs Japan, Argentina will surely win because Netherlands didn't have such a good goalkeeper like Tim Krul. Even better, Argentina had the best record for penalty shootouts in World Cup:
1.Argentina vs Yugoslavia 3-2 (1990 quarterfinal).
2.Argentina vs Italy 5-4 (1990 semifinal).
3.Argentina vs England 6-5 (1998 first knockout round).
4.Argentina vs Netherlands 4-2 (2014 semifinal).
The only game that Argentina lost on penalty shootout was Germany on 2006 quarterfinal (3-5).
