Message: [QUOTE="eebmg, post: 2768272, member: 7548"] I would like Portugal and Argentina to advance for a Renaldo - Messi matchup. But both are probably underdogs (with Argentina being particularly vulnerable due to very destructive coaching environment) so I dont' think Argentina would go mass suicide if they lose (unlike the situation in group play before their 3rd game win where Messi would have led the Suicide march) Update : Argentina announces their lineup. No Sergio Aguerro. Announcers saying Messi is running the show and the lineup is strange to say the least?? Update 2: De Maria with a fabulous goal to tie things up 1-1 at half. Messi pretty invisible so far. Update 3: 2 minutes after writing update 2,Messi gets a ball off and deflects beautifully into goal in 48'. 2-1 Argentina. :D:D Update 4: France ties it 2--2 in the 57' on an absolutely fantastic half volley 30 yard laser beam. :(:( Update 5: Mbappe (19 yr old teenager) whos was solely responsible for the 1st penalty kick given and a near 2nd penalty kick scores on a beautiful interior move in the 67'. Poor goaltending helped. France up 3-2. This kid will soon be one of the best players in the world. Super strong and super fast. Update 6: 30 seconds after writing Update 5, Mbappe scores again on a counter attack. 4-2 france Update 7. Argentina (Aguerro) scores in stoppage at 90+3' and had a chance to tie it up in the last minute. No reason Aguerro who is a world class finisher should not have played from the start and provide more support for Messi.:mad::mad:Head bangHead bang [/QUOTE]
