Argentina didn't make it to the semis since 1990. 24 years ago. Maradona was still playing. That this nt made it there is impressive.

He was good at the start of the second half, but then Argentina decided to concede the midfield and sit back and defend from the 70'th minute or so, and Messi lost all support. He still managed to do some great stuff. Great performance from Messi, good from Higuain (finally!) and good from Di Maria. Garay was an absolute beast in defence.

Pretty much. They broke the quarterfinal curse and i think they will play more freely in the semi. If Sabella doesn't park the bus after scoring they might even score twice :

It was a good save by Courtois in the end. He is probably the hardest keeper 1v1 because he is so big and agile, really hard to get a shot around him.

Two more games Leo! Vamos Argentina!

What was Sabella doing in the second half trying to defend the 1-0 lead? :lol: Luckily it worked out for him.

Its really a downer how he couldnt score that, it seems courtois has the upper hand on him, I really hate how courtois celebrated afterwards.

Overall great first half, he was pressuring, being all over the field, making constant touch with the ball, dribbling guys all over the field

But all of that ended in the second half. Sad

Higuain MOTM. Okay Leo, time to move on and finish every chance he gets against Costa Rica/Holland. The most important thing is that Argentina is in the semis.
