selfish again.
Think it's encouraging for Argentina that they've made it this far with Messi being this awful. He can only get better and that's a good thing for them.Surely Messi can't continue to play this poorly?
He must be due a performance vs Brazil.
I was thinking the same thing. He can’t do worse than he has been so far but if he starts believing in this again and takes his head up and starts playing anything close to what we know he can do, Argentina would look much different in their coming games.Think it's encouraging for Argentina that they've made it this far with Messi being this awful.

I would go with:Di Maria's little cameo will be very encouraging ahead of the Brazil tie. Martinez certainly starts but big decisions to be made about Celso/Acuna/Di Maria
Are you sure about that? Just heard someone saying there's extra time for both the semis and finalJust the final.
Same lineup as the Qatar game then. I actually thought they looked better with Acuna in today for Celso. Will be interesting to see who makes it.I would go with:
Martinez - Aguero
Messi
Lo Celso - Paredes - De Paul
Di Maria as a supersub weapon
Article I read from Marca said no ET until final, same as last year and 2015.Are you sure about that? Just heard someone saying there's extra time for both the semis and final
You keep saying this and you might be right.I doubt Argentina will beat Brazil.
Absolute nonsenseIts interesting I've been talking with some fans on reddit who think if he wins this it will surpass Tiger Woods for sporting story of the year.
We really struggle against well organized teams, which Argentina surely isn't. Unless Messi decides to show up for this one, I'd say we're favorites.You keep saying this and you might be right.
But there's no evidence to suggest Brazil are actually a much better side at the moment, they were a penalty shootout from being eliminated by bloody Paraguay. Remember Brazil failed to beat Venezuela themselves.
It looks like it might Messi's destiny.
Alexis when he picked up long range pass.Ruled out. Umm, who was offside there?!
Vidal scored but another VAR check is on. And ruled out again
Every time I've watched and continue to watch VAR in action, the total determination of the ref in the CL final to not bother to go check the monitor at all for the penalty continues to bewilder me.
