FIFA 2022 world cup

[BRINIRHA]

The last 16 round started today. We watched the Netherlands-USA match as the first match.  Both teams played a balanced game. Although the Netherlands scored the goals, the USA didn't play badly either.  Closing the first half 2-0 ahead, hollamda entered the halftime in high spirits. At the beginning of the second half, the USA increased the pressure and found the goal too late. It was time for the USA to be eliminated after conceding a goal 5 minutes after scoring.
The next match will be played between Argentina and Australia. I expect Argentina to get a comfortable win.

I also think Argentina will win this match, but we should not forget that Australia beat Tunisia and Denmark. Although neither of these teams qualified for the 1/8, they were strong opponents. Although if you watch how masterfully Argentina defeated Poland and Mexico, Australia will not be a difficult problem for them. They have no right to make a mistake, as they did against Saudi Arabia.

well, Argentina should be able to win in this round of 16 match. and we can see in the first round that has just started, Argentina can control the game. Argentina continues to control the ball. just a matter of time I guess. and I will estimate or predict 2-0 in this match for Argentina win. And what Argentina needs to pay attention to is Australia's pattern of counterattacks which can sometimes be a problem for the defense.

Had been very busy recently and hadn't had time to comment here, sorry guys for taking the discussion back, but I am indeed surprised that Brazil lost 0:1 to Cameron, I never knew Cameron to have such a good team to the end that they beat Brazil, but I guess as they always say, it's football, anything is possible .

I am currently watching the Argentina vs Australia match right now, many rooting for Australia to win the match, but if this happens, it'll be another surprise.
Fingers crossed.

Full time Netherlands 3-1 USA.Netherlands won by 3-1 goals against USA.It is big victory fro Netherlands in this world cup.First match Netherlands won in round of 16.But USA played very well than Netherlands. USA got many chances but they didn’t success. Big congratulation for Netherlands to qualify in next round.Netherlands fans are very happy with their big victory.

Soon we will see between Argentina vs Australia and France vs Poland. My estimate, Argentina and France will qualify for the next round. But I hope Australia will win this game.

less then one hour left Argentina vs Australia match will be start . It's going to be a great game.  Although everyone is predicting that Argentina will win but on the other hand Australia is also a good team so they cannot be ruled out for winning . The team that loses the current match will be eliminated from the next stage . So all the teams are trying to win now

looking fwd for Arg and Aussie match in few minutes
Aussie are amazing in cricket - both women and men - I hope this time they make a surprize and beat Argentine

Argentinian players are passing the ball very nicely to each other . Australian players are not getting the ball at their feet too much. An Australian player knocked Messi away while trying to snatch the ball.  But Messi quickly bounced back and started playing normally again . Argentina is running very calmly with the ball . The game looks a bit funny

I think Argentina will do three goals while Australie will not be able to make a single goal - the whole game is controlled by Argentine.

yeah right. and it's only a matter of time. but Australia's defense is pretty solid I think. so the first task for the Argentinian players is to be able to penetrate the solid Australian defense. although Argentina continued to dominate the game. but as we can see the Australian defense has not been penetrated by Argentina. while Argentina is sometimes careless in the area of ​​defense. for being too focused on attack. this can be very dangerous. because this reminds me a little of the Argentina vs Saudi Arabia match. at that time Argentina was too focused on attacking and the defense area became weak.

20 mins to the game - as if Argentine is in the practice mode -the ball is rolling in the feet of Argentine players
Australian players are just saving them coming close to the goal

[Falconer]

Most of people think this as an easy game for Argentina but Australia are also no joke. They have been one of the surprising teams in the WC so far. Although Argentina are better with the squad and all but some tactics can surely change things around if defence are not aware enough. So far WC has already surprised us so I am still not eliminating chances of Australia surprising Argentina at all.

It will be interesting to see what game plan Australia come up with in this game because they normally wouldn't win against a squad like Argentina.

Australia is not to be underestimated, they are also very dangerous when counter-attack. So far Argentina has dominated the game with ball possession, while Australia has tended to stay in its defensive area. Nothing exciting yet because neither Argentina nor Australia have managed to create any chances, but I don't think Australia will have many chances if they play like they are at the moment.

Argentina will win this fight if they continue to put pressure on Australia's defense, but so far I don't see anything interesting in this match. The first 25 minutes were a bit boring, but I hope the match will get more interesting as time goes on.

Aussie are in defensive style today
They just don't want them to score a goal. 25 min and the game is slow needed a Saudi spirit in game

[Rruchi man]

Argentinian players are passing the ball very nicely to each other . Australian players are not getting the ball at their feet too much.

Possession doesn't win games, Argentina need to quickly get a goal just like Netherlands did earlier to prove their dominance. In this first half so far, I have noticed that the wing that Di Maria plays for Argentina which has been one of their most effective wing breaking through defenses is not the same and as effective as we have seen, the Argentina coach has decided to rest Di Maria due to the thigh injury he picked against Poland, so they decided to rest him from their starting eleven. I hope it doesn't become a problem for them, because with what I see and how defending the strategy of this Australian side, If they score first, Argentina will struggle to equalize.

Fingers crossed.

Argentina controlled the course of the match, but the defense that Australia built was very well so far that it was difficult for Argentina to penetrate their defense for at least the first 25 minutes. It was not surprising when Argentina took over the course of the match because they did have the ability to. Australia is very careful to get out attacking because they don't want to be hurriedly doing that. Because if Argentina manages to win the ball and counterattack, it will be fatal for them.

I think Australia is playing a very good game from my observations so far, they already attempted the first goal which they missed, their defense is very good but I guess it is still very early into the match to really decide, they have also received one yellow card as well.

Argentina on the other hand are not doing bad at all, they are trying their best to keep the ball off their post even though they have allowed more corner kicks on their side.

That is correct -both the teams are unable to attack and there are no fouls yet both the teams are playing fair not to give the other team a chance
but Argentine seems to have more control of the game

[3meek]

So far, traditionally for play-off matches, the teams have played very carefully... In 30 minutes Argentina managed only one shot, which in my opinion is not typical for them, having such a strong line of attacking players... It will probably be very difficult for Australia to face Messi in the second half... I'd be surprised if this game ends 0-0 or any other draw... Although we've already seen a lot of upsets in this Championship, the first of which was shown to us by Argentina, but it probably won't happen again today...

Messi 1-0...

10 Australian players are defenders today. It is very difficult to score against such a defense. Argentina is not able to make any shots. They made several attacks. But they are not able to penetrate the Australian defense. If Australia somehow manages to score the first goal of the match today, it will be almost impossible for Argentina to win this match. Argentina's defenders will have to be careful. Australia will try to score from the counterattack. Argentina is likely to concede goals if their defenders are not alert.

[Fivestar4everMVP]

First goal for Argentina from Messi, that was a great goal, and that push from the Australian player to the Argentina player which awarded Argentina the free kick that brought about this goal was uncalled for, the player(couldn't get his name) acted like he had previously had a fight with the Argentina player he pushed...
But anyways, this is football, sometimes, things like this are indeed required for a goal to push through, I am happy for Argentina that they were able to turn this into a goal.

[BRINIRHA]

yeah and finally Argentina can score. like I said its just a matter of time. because even though Australia's defense is so solid. but if Argentina continues to pound it then a little gap will definitely open up. and now Argentina is 1-0 up. congratulations to messi who has managed to score the first goal in this first round. and now Australia had no choice but to change their strategy to be a bit more offensive.

[sovie]

First goal for Argentina from Messi, that was a great goal

Messi Rocks - Aussie Shocked
For approx 35 min Aussie were defensive and were not playing to their fullest - I think Australia have to show their full strength

[izsara]

First goal for Argentina from Messi, that was a great goal

Comparable to them controlling the ball because indeed this is certain to happen especially considering the current conditions that Argentina is indeed very superior in this match.
I think it's really difficult for a dark horse to beat a team that is considered big in the play-offs this time even though there were some surprises in the group phase but I'm not too sure about this phase.

[coinerer]

First goal for Argentina from Messi, that was a great goal

yeah first goal by Messi from Argentina . The goal was due to a mistake by Australia.  Due to a foul by an Australian player, Argentina got a good chance to take control of the ball near the penalty area.  And Argentina took advantage of that opportunity to score a goal through Messi . it was soo great

Messi continues to dominate in this world cup and another good goal and its impresive how he finds the space and scores the goal. Australia was attacking decent in the first half but just couldnt score and Argentina and Messi punished them this now means that Australia has to attack even more so there will be more room for Argentina to score.
