Would miss the final though.

Cheddira might be the worst player in the whole tournament, that pass wasn't played to him.

Would be my dream signing, probably my favourite player to watch in the world right now.

Only 22 too, can see him getting a move after this tournament.

Pretty much yeah, no idea why.

Every game.

En-Nesiri with a ridiculous jump.

Absolutely, many here questioned why Argentina were even favourites against the Netherlands and to me it's pretty clear why after watching that match.

There's a newer study with larger sample size that proves it's very very close to 50-50. Don't have a link but it has been talked about a lot by both broadcasters in Finland.

Because he's the greatest player to have ever played the game? And would already be a WC champion if he had abandoned Argentina and had chosen Spain instead.

Assisted Neymar's goal.

What a goal, get in!

Really want that Brazil-Argentina SF.

Harsh, got injured in the first game and missed the following two group games.

Leao is hardly unknown if you watch any continental football at all.

That Portugal squad is ridiculously talented and tons of options off the bench too. Think they are a legit contender now, hard to say anyone to be definitely a lot better than them.

Nah, statshaggers said Morocco didn't win that undeservedly.

That second penalty was really good tbh. Lewa looked like he'll take a normal pen and made Lloris look like a fool, yard off the line again and in imbalance.

Think Di Maria is underrated in England due to that one season in Man Utd (in which he still had 3+11 in 27 games). One of the best and most consistent wingers of the past 10-15 years IMO.

I don't really get the 'Argentina were average' comments. They were cruising to a 2-0 win until the freak goal and even after that had the much better chances.

Hadn't really seen much of him before the knockouts of last Copa America but I thought he would end up a superstar and €35m looked like a steal. Seems like Simeone has suffocated all the ability he had with the ball.

Like just wasn't enough.

Messi and Di Maria are old but still good. Otamendi too but I don't think it matters, he's still the same. Australia scored with a shot that would've been 20 yards wide and high and got few chances from loose balls and and one once-in-a-lifetime run while Argies missed a sitter after sitter. Argies the favourites against Netherlands imo.

No and no.

Jesus what a run!
