World Cup 2018

Likewise, Argentina has shown pretty much nothing, so France have no reason to be scared of this Argentina side either.

Is any side really scared of Argentina right now?

 

[Alik]

Basically, if Argentina want to win they cannot concede first because there is no way they have the fortitude to come back from a deficit.

 

[Hardy]

Argentina is basically the worst of all 16 teams in the draw for what they showed in the first 3 matches, disgusting on both attack and defense, they are old, slow and athletically pathetic for the current level of football.

 

[BerkeleyBernie]

So, Colombia it is! They are better than Japan, and will be a difficult opponent, but I'm not scared of them. Can't wait!

Unfortunately, looks like they'll be missing Rodriguez.

 

[TrueCule]

This Argentina side is one of the most experienced sides on this tournament. They have all what it takes to defeat France tomorrow. France haven't shown anything special, they have a pathetic couch, bunch of overrated players with Pogba on top, slow Giroud.

 

[Horatio]

I believe Argentina to also edge it over France because of the experience.

ah, no.. this Argentine side is one of the worst teams i have ever witnessed.

Portugal 2016 was one of the worst teams I've ever witnessed too, but they somehow managed to come on top.

that Portugal team had balance and it still does. this Argentina team have no midfield, shit defence and questionable GK

My original prediction was a Belgium-Spain final, with the possibility of a Brazil-Spain final.

France - Argentina ? (edge to France)
Brazil - Mexico
Belgium - Japan
Spain - Russia
Croatia - Denmark
Sweden - Switzerland
Columbia - England


Quarterfinals

England has the luckiest path forward and might well survive until meeting Spain.

Pretty much exactly as I envisage it with Portugal sliming it all the way through and edging out Belgium. They're not playing good football, but they're willing to kill for each other. More so than any other team.

and no coach

Have that feeling as well. Football is a funny game. France has the better form and Argentina have been horrible all around, but it still depends on who wants it more on the day.
