World Cup

2-1 to Argentina: Martinez heads Argentina in front after 92 minutes following a cross from Messi.
England bring on Rashford and Toney with minutes to spare.
 
I just tuned in for the last 15 minutes of Argentina-England. Holy cow. With the US and Mexico out, I don't have a favorite, but it's hard not to be impressed by Argentina's grit and ability to come from behind.
 
I'm not fan of Tuchel and he'll get roasted because they lost but it's hard to argue against bringing in burn and o reilly at 82 to lock down and hold the 1-0 lead, especially with Argentina dominating the second half and getting so many chances.
 
Well Tuchel fucked that one right up

Taking off Gordon for a CB just let Messi take up camp and dictate play. 2 assists from Messi, 2 goals for Argentina.

I hope the boss says sorry to the players, cos they put in a hell of a shift, but he left them high and dry.

Having said that, I suspect if Argentina had played football from the first whistle, rather than spending 45 minutes trying to wind Bellingham up enough for him to do something silly and get sent off they’d have cruised that game,

Players win matches, and Messi and his teammates did that. Bad tactics lose matches and that’s on Tuchel
