As an England fan this is no fun at all.

Anderson is playing really well again though. Kept Odegaard quiet last time now he's on Messi.
Not bad considering he was a bit part winger for Newcastle 2 years ago.

Djed Spence is on it too.

There´s very little football happening, but I wouldn´t put the blame that squarely on Argentina, this game is definitely a case of taking two to tango.

When one team comes out for a fight, the other team has to fight.
England have let Argentina dictate the type of match being played, but they are at least doing a decent job of it anyway.

Sure, but its just a coincidence its always Argentina's games...

But I will admit as a Dutchy I am biased after that disgraceful '22 game.

(where to be clear, we were just as disgraceful.
Well... almost. We didn't volley a ball strait into the bench)

I'm not sure going all out defense for half an hour at the end is the way to go.

I don't understand football. Why didn't Argentina play this way the entire game? Felt like they waited for England to score to start playing. Is England getting 50% better now too?

Because it leaves their defence open. They can do this because there are 11 English players in the penalty box and they need to score or they are out.

The 100% predictable equalizer and now you have an offensive Argentina team vs a defensively subbed England team.

sigh.

England gave up playing that is sad, they are much better than what they showed after scoring. Hope they can pick it up. It would be a great story to have them back at the final after 1966

England went full defense, when their strategy was higher on the field it was harder to implement something like this. The strat always looks bad cause the momentum makes it look like the goal has to be coming. And also if the other team scores your team is kind of fucked because you don't really have the team to score again.

Eh they had like four shots hitting the post before the goal. No fucking way that strategi was going to work.
