Someone said recently that all of the goals in this World Cup are set-pieces, penalties and screamers.
Hard to argue with that, especially if you're using this game as evidence.

Great game, but Argentina arguably should be down to eight men. Fazio topped off his blunder with a shirt pull as the very last man.
Nope, that was me pointing out that Pavard appeared to be playing in a completely different match to the ones Lawrenson and Murphy were watching.You were saying
South Korea had a pair of tap-ins against Germany, so we're due one hitting the post and then rebounding across the line via a befuddled defender's backside soon...
OK you dudes are doing well at RCL ing it. Let me have a go.
That Messi is ****, I'm glad there's absolutely no chance of Levy and Poch bring him to Tottenham this summer.

Imagine being an Argentinian goalkeeper who failed to make this squad.
You'd be sitting at home watching it just thinking, "Really? REALLY?", every time they play!

I'd stick Fazio in goals. The big lummox would at least fill up the net.
4 - 2
**** it. Went for 3 - 1 France. Undercooked it.

Argentina destroyed by Mbappe....
But what’s with all the subs being allowed to run on the pitch at every goal? Been happening even through the first round.?

Genuine question: have Argentina ever had a genuinely good goalkeeper?Imagine being an Argentinian goalkeeper who failed to make this squad.

Brazil can say they've had some (Taffarel, Dida, Alisson), Paraguay had Chilavert, Chile and Uruguay have both had top-level goalkeepers over the years, but Argentina always seem to have a weak link in that area.

Otamendi/Rojo/Fazio v Mbappe was always a mismatch.
None are comfortable with quick players running at them and none can tackle*
Poor management to ignore such a weakness.

France have good players in all positions. Argentina only have top forwards. The rest of the team is pish.
