Argentina is done. I know mathematically they have a chance, but they are done. They barely qualified for the WC, have no real talent, teams double/triple team Messi all around the pitch, and the rest of the team is hot garbage, as far as Argentine standards go.
I hate Beilgium for Everton, always choking despite having a wealth of talent, and now Japan but still hate the French more for being a team of divers. Anyone who watched the first half of their game against Peru should understand. I can deal with a team having one or two prolific diving attackers but when your defenders are getting into it like Umtiti was in that game... Out of all the games I've watched this WC, the team I've wanted to win has come up with a whopping two wins. They weren't all underdogs, though. I wanted some of these aging stars in the mix late but it wasn't to be.
