Argentina

Brazil 3-4 Messi! !Qué Golazo!

f1b86

Hola amigos,

This game is maybe the most useful for Argentina I’ve ever seen.
Sabella had absoluetly everything under his eyes: what to do and what not to do.

Although the result could have been different, I’ am going to remember what Messi did: giving the victory to Argentina with a golazo.

I’m not a coach, I’m a fan. So I’m going to be happy. It’s Sabella job to understand that:

- only Mascherano and Gago want to defend in midfield and that Di Maria and Sosa just don’t care,
- his training on defending free-kicks has been useless,
- we could have lost this game 5-10, lets face the truth,
- Pélé, Maradona, Zidane were world champions and there are no reasons why Messi shouldn’t: but if Sabella doesn’t start doing his job, Messi won’t!
- Romero must be supported and not destroyed

I’m waiting for you friends analysis. Please, don’t be too severe with the 6 guys who were defending yesterday (Zaba, Fernandez, Garay, Clemente, Mascherano, Gago).
They did all they could. Fernandez was asking Di Maria not to lose the ball as it was exposing them to counter-attacks. These players deserve the win. But they must ask for defensive cohesion and organization. Why can’t Mascherano complain? Seconds before Messi’s golazo, they were in a 2 vs 5 situation!

Brazil are getting used to lose against us now. Messi showed them yesterday that you can’t waste too many chances against him. Thank you so much Leo!

VAMOS ARGENTINA!
