    I don't understand the love affair for Prison Break. I remember watching it the first couple of seasons when it first came out and lost interest when it got super goofy.

    Wait until they discover The Sopranos.

    Interesting midfield of Simeone - Palacios - Lo Celso - Barco.

    I'm excited to see how the RM and LM position will contribute to the attack, I like the speed and creative options we have there. Lo Celso and Barco probably have freedom to interchange themselves between CM and LM.

    Palacios as CDM is interesting. Let's see how that midfield works.

    Capaldo better be getting a long look in this game. I can't believe he's not starting.

    Lo Celso and. Almada are pretty worthless. Just heavy passes all over the place. Simeone as well.

    The first first 15 minutes or so, we were okay… But the last 7-8 minutes, whole lot meh.

    Lo Celso hits the post on a long curler

    And it's a penalty

    Lautaro scores it, 1-0

    Does Lautaro know any other direction to kick his penalties other than the goalies right? Just wondering...

    Lautaro and his cinderblock feet. Good grief... How can his touch always be so heavy?

    For some reason it always worked in NT. Maybe the goalie studied him and thinking, this time he aint shoot it there.


    Giu with his trademark play, running straight at traffic with full speed.

    Giuliano running as fast as he could with his head down and then runs into 3 defenders. Does he have any skill other than being a speed merchant?

    Is that Lisandro trying a bicycle? imagine having a bad landing...

    While I wont judge our game in match like this, the first half left alot to be desired.

    Nico gonzalez might actually be an upgrade over Almada. The attack is so disjointed and no one can even dribble. Lo Celso only one who showed any skills

    Licha and Colo are two players who had a pretty decent half. Giay defensively he's been fine but in terms of offense? Pretty pedestrian.

    Almada is seriously worthless. I am trying to figure out why Scaloni took him when he had a god-awful season with Atletico. Simeone just runs and presses into the abyss.

    Almada is wide open in the box with all the time in the world to shoot and sends the ball to Dallas. Classic...

    Like I said, Giuliano makes those fast runs behind the defenders to get himself in good positions to score!

    Credit to wear its due, our passing has been better in second half. Alot more fluid. Should have been 4-0 if wasnt Almada. RDP seems clearly knows how to pass but only before he has run up to 6km.

    Beautiful goal.

    Most of this board is just too negative. Back the boys. What's done is done.

    And they have more than earned the respect we give them.

    At WC, expect a certain teams to have a low block defence like this but with countering ability!
