2026 FIFA World Cup: Semifinals - Argentina vs. England

That was all caused by the stupid pass he got. Cuti is the best defender in the world. I dont care if he does nothing at that garbage club

 

So many people on TV blasting Tuchel for going defensive; which is the correct criticism, but only partially IMO.

Its not so much what Tuchel did, its also what Scaloni did in the chest game. Brilliant substitutions and how he maintains flexibility.

 

Guys, I'm speechless and my voice is gone. Just amazing. What huevos. With the pre-game pity party going Englands way "oh they've suffered and overcame a lot in this cup!" and the repeated play of Maradona's goal in 86, you knew what the message was, but it didn't phase our boys. Scaloni did it again. Perfect subs.

 

Aright... who's the wise-ass?

A bit harsh on Murray. I've stopped watching womens tennis years ago. And rarely watched mens tennis until the late stages when Rafa, Federer, Murray and Djoko and del Potro before the injury served up some exciting tennis. The artistry in tennis is gone. Bring back wooden rackets and we'll see who has real skill.

 

At the risk of being sad when one should be happy I think 2014 and 2006 were real missed opportunities as well. But hey ho lets get the job done on Sunday.

 

SM shows he is a film aficionado......Mary Pickford.....

 

I hope his health is okay.

 

Looking back. This is the sort of match that for the winner attains mythical status in years to come. For the loser it becomes a real scar.

Have to say apart from Molina sorry to single him out they all played well. Our players seem to be peaking when it matters.

Enzo and Alexis had their best games, Julian looked really sharp, Nico G too and Messi at times was his 25 year old sprinting to cover the ball. Tags ever reliable at the back and getting forward.

The blame here is for Tuchel but with not enough credit for how hard Argentina made the England players work hard and forced them back. They just tired them out and they didn't have the capability to break out. As loco said it could have ended up a goleada.

We passed crisply and at speed and switched with ease. The subs all came off so credit to Manna as well for his analysis and Scaloni for bringing those players on.

Someone does need to have a word with Barco. He really has a fiery streak in him. I'm sure Scaloni will.

 

Everytime they lose the excuses are the same. They said this when Italy beat them, and even when Spain beat them. It's just noise. No need to pay attention to noise. I have my noise cancellation ear buds in:

 

Thankgod Argentina didn't complain LMAO Rice could have been sent off 3 times lolll 😂

Tuchel speaking the truth about England lmao he says that it was NEVER THE PLAN to bunker. Meaning Argentina just DOMINATED THEM.
