2015 Copa América

Yep, Tata lost the plot there.

 

[ThwiX]

Got some flashbacks from the Tata season while watching this game.

 

[King Leo]

Tata made unexplainable subs. So mad right now.

 

[Capitan Puyol]

The same mistakes made by Tata as our manager. Barca-Getafe 2:2 (late equalizer for Getafe) - very bad defending at the end of the match and that cost us the title. Against Atletico - the title match 1-1, again after we took advantage (fierce superbly shot by Alexis), our defence got worse than ever and Simeone's side had 4-5 chances for goal and of course Godin equalized...
Even the 2-1 at Camp Nou against Real Madrid (october 2013) we had a bit of luck and again poor defending in the last minutes... Tata didn't win any competitive (two legged) cup in his career, only 2 championships in Paraguay 2003, 2004. I think it's very hard for him to motivate the players in the tough matches, which decide wheter you win or lose a respective cup...

Tata Martino rulezzz! The cup is for Argentina!

This game and plenty examples in the past show, you can't walk a tournament on paper. The scorelines in this tournament has told what me I already figure would be a very difficult Copa. I expect Brazil to struggle tomorrow as well.

 

[Blaugrana Bull]

Tata made weird subs but the draw is on the players that missed all those chances. Messi, Pastore etc. Should have scored the 3rd.

Tata wasn't at complete fault here. Di Maria was just wasteful in possession. Losing balls cheaply. I also believe Pastore isn't needed if Messi is there.

 

[Younes Lamrani]

i didnt realize i wasnt watchin a match of barca last season until when they showed the score Lol!

 

[Egert]

Tata is absolutely a fool... Those subs were horrible but Argentina also missed a lot of chances. Hoping for a better game in their next game vs Uruguay

Game should never been at the point where Paraguay dominated Argentina. And that happened, for 40 minutes in 2nd half. And what did Tata do? Watched from the line then brought in (very late) two strikers when his midfield was getting overrun. Incompetence...

Apparently Coutinho is injured so he probably won't feature for them, which is an absolute shame, the lad has been sensational for years now and very much deserved a spot in that Brazil side.

It's both. The argies were playing as if the game was decided at HT. And then Tata decided he didn't need a midfield, and that improved paraguay's chances for a draw.

Better in the first game though than the semi's, hope he learned from it.

That awful news cause Dunga will play Fred in the attacking midfield spot.
