As an Arsenal fan I like that too. That will humble Sanchez
Argentina wamestruggle game nyingi hata they were no. six going into this match. Mid yao haiclick na strikers wanauza yet they play very well for their clubs.
They’ve missed out on goal difference :eek::eek::eek:. Look at how it was so so tight. They needed not to lose by a two goal margin against the Samba Boys, which is exactly what happen. So Alexis Sanchez won’t be in Russia 2018.
It’s Peru who go to the Oceania playoff with New Zealand.

Even Argentina has the same problem, the only attacker who has been performing is Messi.
All that means nothing trust me. If you look at the history of CONMEBOL qualifiers, when the CONMEBOL giants Bra. or Arg. really struggle in qualifying, they go on to do very well at the finals, eventually winning the trophy. Remember Bra. in 2001. Walikuwa worse than Arg. this year. It’s actually a good thing, kinda makes them not rest on their laurels, reshape & restrategize…
South American qualifiers si mchezo, unaona hata Brazil wanacheza like European teams. They no longer play the free-flowing football ya enzi za Romario, Ronaldo and Dinho.
They were number 6 but number 3 had only 1 point more. Anyway, we wait, it will be a boring WC without Messi, Deybala
Even before Mexico 86’, kina Maradona struggled a lot in qualifications.
I forsee analysts blaming the transfer from arsenal saga for the failure of Chile to qualify for the WC. On the transfer deadline day, Sanchez played shit. he was even robbed the ball that led to the other team scoring
Most complete team= Belgium
Team with most lethal forward line=Argentina
Dark horse that could pull a surprise = France
Most overated = England
Most tactical = Brazil & Germany
Which playoffs? They qualified directly. Only Peru going for the playoffs
No one talks about England nowadays. They’re such perennial underachievers. In 2014, they were eliminated on a day they weren’t even playing.
For France, I really don’t envy Didier Deschamps. His squad has depth never seen before in footballing history. Squad selection will be such a migraine for him.
you should’ve posted his pic in Argentine kit
:D:D it was too early for you to rule messi out…this guy is simply talented.14 goals out of 11 this season and he delivered once again. Superb performance. The third goal was exceptional. You could count on one hand the number of people who could pull off such a finish. It’s bread and butter for Messi. If anyone in that Argentina selection deserves anything, it’s this guy.
But the whole team needs to perform if they’re to do anything worthwhile in Russia. Their defense is horrible. South American teams have shite defenses in general that get found out once they come up against superior tactical arrangements from Europe. The only outlier is Brazil
England is destroyed by the nosy media
Kwanza sahii am sure they are about to start comparing Harry Kane to Ronaldo
No, but Harry Kane is a really good striker, with potential to become a great.
from the highlights seems only messi and di maria were the only ones trying
Congrats to Iceland and Panama!! Egypt too, first appearance since 1990…
