Martinez with a couple of excellent saves there. Argies deserved it on the basis of play. Dutch way too negative, even when they found a weak point to get back into the game they reverted back to the defensive nonsense.
Seeing as they were playing for them for 130 mins you'd have thought they would've practiced more than 3.
Crotia did really well against Brazil, but Argentina with Messi are going to have an easy route to the final aren't they.
That Dutch set peice was just utterly magnificent. Corner taken quickly kinda ****. Goal of the tournament for me. So far at least.
Problem with Brazil they could do all the tippy tappy stuff but the end result wasn't worthy of any pigeon feed dancing.
Yeh I think Argies will just be too powerful going forward. They close down quicker than Brazil as well so Croatia won't have the possession they did today.
Dutch had the upper hand psychologically having come back from 2 down so late then Vin Dijk ****ed the vibe up with that shocking first pen and they never recovered
Can't see Ronaldo getting another start ... Messi is pivotal to Argentina's chances of success ... Ronnie is now peripheral to Portugal's ...
