Paris 2024: XXXIII Summer Olympiad Discussion

Ota is thinking... "Damn, just a week ago, I was winning another CA Final with the boys and Scaloni... Now, I have to deal with this guy..."



But kudos to Masche for still staying fit. He still looks he can play, albeit not very well at his age but at least he did not let himself go like so many other footballers (Sneijder).

 

You leave Masche alone, he's a legend.

 

It'll be on Telemundo and USA Network in the U.S.

 

I remember during the Olympics(Can't recall if it was 2020, or something prior), Telemundo or USA or whatever the hell it was would go on commercial break in the middle of the game or cut away to archery or something like that and return. I hope they've learned their lesson.

 

Most people dont consider olympics football as important matter. Not to mention CA & Euro had just finished.

I personally enjoy youth tournament.

My prediction, 2-2.

 

I won't be anywhere near as invested, especially because we've had so many poor results with Mascherano coaching, but it's soccer and it's Argentina so I have to watch, lol

 

Finally an event I can watch live without jumping through streaming hoops or having to pay online packages. Canada is so backwards with entertainment media even in 2024.

It will be available online for free.

 

Lol wtf are these odds

 

.

 

Good challenge from Soler.

 

Hezze, Medina and Zenon need to up their game. Not enough movement from them.

 

I just heard Enciso is going to play for Paraguay... what's Brighton excuse for letting him go but not Barco?? We could use someone like him right now.

We lack creativity, Echeverri will have to bring it in this tournament or we'll have a very hard time. He needs to come in the second half.

 

Classic Masche team...directionless

 

Great 0-1 on the stroke of half time.

 

At least this might finally be the end of Mascherano masquerading as a manager

 

Hezze, Medina and Zenon very poor. Not moving enough, poor passes, all moving to the same spot, same slow tempo.

Beltran not enough work compared to Julian. Poor passing too. Gift of a goal sleepwalking at the back.

Equi for Zenon, Echeverri for Medina, Simeone for Beltran. Drop Julian behind Simeone into a five man midfield. If you're good enough you are young enough.

Argentina Rugby 7s team starting soon as well. Kenya at 1500 GMT Samoa 1830 GMT.

American co-commentator on the stream is doing my head in as well. Morocco falling to the floor at every opportunity and fouling all the time. Referee has been useless and the linesman too. Amazing offside when the player was 2m onside.

 

Honestly Mastantuono would be a huge improvement over the current midfield. As against Lanus if you had dropped in from outer space and not known who was who he would have stood out as the leader and most calm and assured player on the pitch.

If you are good enough you are old enough to play. Someone slap Masche a few times around his bald pate.

 

do you have a link please ?

 

Masche style giving up a goal at the end of the the first half.

 

They is no clear identity. Are they a counter attacking team, possession based team? Morocco are matching us with their intensity and they are technically good with the ball. Deserved lead.

 

5-7 to Kenya at HT. Sad French crowd booing the Argentine players every time they touch the ball.

 

Lmao penalty... total dive.. dude is grinning as he is lying down on the field

 

Otamendi taken to the cleaners and the Moroccan takes a dive for a penalty. Its given but lets see what VAR says.

 

Useless VAR
