#23 Argentina 0-3 Croatia ~ Group D
I think there are lots of question marks about Argentina, but guess if that man Messi gets his act together, they could have make life very uncomfortable for Crotia, but it's a big if, coz they're a very decent outfit themselves. This could be the match of the tournament so far

Re: Argentina v Croatia - Match thread ~ Group D
I agree, really looking forward to this. I think Croatia will nick it and put Argentina on the brink. They’re awful at defending set pieces and Mandzukic won’t be as forgiving as Iceland’s attack were.

Yup, I've had bets on Croatia to win the group. I'd take the draw but a win to see the Argies ****ting themselves would be lovely.

I've got high hopes for this. As the Argies could only draw against the minnows-that-shouldn't-be-there-ruining-the-tournament-playing-defensively Iceland, they really need to go for the win in this one, or else end up relying on beating Nigeria and other results going their way.
Croatia are a decent team with some great individual players and are more than capable of picking the Argies off. Overchuffed that this is the 7pm game today.

Re: Argentina v Croatia - Match thread ~ Group D
What odds can we get on this being 1-0 with Argentina scoring fairly early and then sitting back and wasting time for 63 minutes, play acting with each team trying the get the teams's players booked?

ENORMOUS pressure on Messi & Argentina.
Argies have to go for it so should be a good game.
Pleeease...

Seems to have been loads of treading-on-the-toes fouls in this World Cup.

On 5live just now, JP just said Javier Masch has won 2 (footy) gold medals at the Olympics.
