Maybe Prestianni can end up having a career like Papu. They both are short and dance.... But seriously... Papu had some great years in the Serie A, people tend to forget about that. H
Well coached again. Should have been a little more comfortable. Vamos. Vamos..... Well done indeed. Prestianni superb tonight and great saving challenge from Villalba.
Final. This ref has been reasonable throughout the game. Never seems to lose his cool on the players and always stayed cool.
I am convinced that we would've got a gold in the Olympics if Masche was not the manager. The sheer stupidity of the AFA to give that bald clown that role. Loved him as a player but good grief....
It wasn't a great game from the boys, tho they played better in the 2nd half. With Carrizo returning I think there's no way we lose the final.
Morocco did win their group with the Gallegos and the Brazucas. They have also been stingy in the back, only really giving up penalties (outside of one goal in the run of play). We should win it, and I do hope the fans make the trip out to Chile to support the boys. Before the tournament I said our aim should be at the least a semi-final birth, if we had our stars, a final. Placente said the same thing, he wanted us to be in the final 4. But I think everybody wants to win this and we should take the game seriously. --------------------- As for the match v the Colombia, we will always have the mental edge over them. Similar to the Mexicans, they crumble when they see us. They do well v the Brazucas and others but anytime we take the pitch v them, I feel confident. We could've done better but a 1-0 win is no different than 5-0. We advance and play for the trophy. Delgado is also quite the leader. After the whistle, he went and greeted and picked up the Colombians from the ground. Delgado, Gorosito, Pérez, and Montoro have promise for the next step. A few others but I think it is a nice solid squad.
Looking at the stats for the Morocco v France game, Morocco had one shot on target! But obviously going to be tough in the final against them, a great opportunity to add another under 20 world cup to the haul.
A team that beat Spain, Brazil and France cant be underestimated. However, they only had one cleansheet which was the opening match. They always conceided in subsequent matches. They also lost to Mexico so they're definetely beatable.
They're a very good side, as you say, look at the teams they have beaten to get to the final, they will be confident going into the final.
Terrible by the defence, a straight ball from miles away. And equally terrible by our GK, who has been awful all tournament bar the semifinal.
There really needs to be a time limit. If it's not obvious enough to figure out in a minute the call shouldn't change
