    Still dont think we should be afraid of the Argies. 7 times out of 10, Norway and Argies gets us in the WC Final. France will dick us but thats another matter.
    Might not need to be afraid of them at this rate

    Shite pen
    He’s not a great penalty taker. I don’t know why Enzo Fernandez doesn’t take them for Argentina. 
    Just because he's Messi.

    Wonder if there's stats for how many penalies Argentina get compared to other teams?

    And him getting the golden boot and keeping the record for WC goals ahead of Mbappe is at least as important as winning the WC

    I know the game’s not over, but what a game this Egyptian goalie is having.

    But it was a stonewall penalty. Its not like it was a dubious decision in their favour

    This one was, I agree.

    But take the Kane decision v DR Congo, the one not given - if that had been Messi, do you think he'd have been given a penalty?

    Worth a question why Messi has to take all their penalties if his scoring rate is so poor at them. 

    If it were Ronaldo or Neymar they'd be accused of arrogance....

    Bah, for some reason I thought this game started at 6. Is it worth watching on +1 or carry on live from here? It's a shame it's not on the Beeb, cos I could watch from the start at 2x speed and catch up :)

    Low block with Messi working between the lines feels like it can only work for so long.

    Agreed. That midfield of Wilson, Kepple and Betty looks good.  :smiley:
    Dancing around the Argies at the moment.
