FIFA World Cup 2026 :Canada/Mexico/United States: Discussion Thread

Guys, which team do you think has the best chance of beating Spain in the final?
Argentina or England?

Argentina seems to play a style of soccer more similar to Spain's, while England seems to have more physical strength, more individual talent, and a great goal-scorer

Considering how Spain made France the best team in this World Cup underperformed yesterday, I don't think either England or Argentina can win Spain, for Spain to prevent mighty France from playing their regular football they will be difficult to beat in the finals, but I think England has the best chance of beating Spain because of their style of football as it will make it difficult for Spain players to play freely.

Today is another high voltage match, Argentina vs England, what do you think? Which team can win? Considering all aspects, Argentina has more chances, I don't want to say anything more about the honesty of their game by the way, now let's see how Argentina plays in today's match. I don't know today if they will get the same advantage as like the Egypt match, but I hope England can create a lot of pressure against Argentina today. Anyway, I will enjoy the match, the semi-final match, it will be a very good match.

I'm going for Argentine. The way messi played was convincing me to see them to win this, though so many hate come for them. They're also much more creative, and have proper team work than England.

England may strong. England is also being favored, but it's also possible for Argntina to beat them consider the gap in the odds is thin. So bookies value Argentina almost as big as England to qualify. Messi will score at least two goals in this game.

There is not long to go until the second semifinal between England and Argentina. It is tough to call a favorite—both teams are incredibly closely matched in terms of quality and skill. But Argentina have luck on their side, plenty of grit, and Messi, who can decide the game in a single moment. Personally, I feel Argentina are more deserving of a spot in the final.

Spanish football proved superior to France's. It's hard to see how players like Mbappe and Olise, who generate so much buzz, and Dembele, were left out. The Spanish players managed to contain them without losing their style. It's incredible that Spain is already a finalist. I think many bets were wrong and many have lost. This World Cup has very different twists and turns. It's not a huge surprise, but 2-0 is certainly something to talk about.

From the very first kickoff of this tournament, I already knew that they were going to be a lot of upsets. Having a stronger team with individual brilliance does not longer matter, because it only takes 90mins of unexpected drama for tables to turn. The Spanish side were very disciplined, especially defensively wise. The french side couldn't cause enough damage despite having a better attack in this competition.

And as for the game tonight, it's a difficult one to predict. And I like both teams for different reasons... I'm supporter of messi, and I have 4 of my club players playing for England. Best of luck to both sides.

I thought France will be coming into the game with a special kind of hunger knowing fully well that they have something to prove to Spain. France has the players but I wonder why they played that way last night. I still can't wrap my head around why all of a sudden they couldn't play ball anymore. If France had lost while putting up a good fight, I don't think we would have been this surprised.

It was simply the lack of tactical adaptation by France that led to their exit, as Kylian Mbappé openly admitted. Spain played an attacking style of football that the majority did not foresee. Spain's defense was excellent, leaving no open space for the French trio of Kylian Mbappé, Ousmane Dembélé, and Michael Olise, while their goalie was exceptional.
The England and Argentina match is about to start. Both of these teams have defensive flaws, and the match depends upon how Harry Kane and Lionel Messi perform.

If England ends up making it to the final, then I think this team will indeed be able to give Spain a hard time, because the two teams’ playing styles don’t mesh well. But if Argentina makes it to the final and faces Spain, Argentina’s movements could very well be shut down, just as the Spanish players did an excellent job of shutting down Mbappé’s movements. And Messi will face the same situation if they take on Spain. Spain has two attacking midfielders who are equally lethal. And that’s what makes it difficult for any team to beat Spain. Spain only seemed to struggle against Portugal and Cape Verde, because those were the only two matches in which Spain failed to score within 90 minutes.

Spain is now truly the favorite, I think, in the upcoming final, no matter who their opponent is.

After witnessing the outcome of yesterday's game between France vs Spain, it's just too difficult to predict a game I think is more of a 50-50 than yesterday's semi final match.

England has a good chance of reaching the final of the FIFA World Cup for the second time in their history tonight but they'll have to beat an Argentina side that are currently defending the trophy.

Argentina is also aiming to win it fir the second consecutive time and with Lionel Messi still creating chances when you least expected it, I think they also have a big chance.

I'm backing England to win but if Argentina wins, I won't be too surprised.

This is Argentine first top team to play in this tournament they have been playing African nations in this world cup, this is a big test for them to prove themselves.  Argentina players like to play for messi and they will chase the ball for him,  England has to stay in their game plan and try to attack more, let them not focus on messi,  it will be tough than France and Spain yesterday,  and I'll only support the best team to win,both of them are not my favorites team in this tournament.

I actually think that the biggest weapon of the Argentina team is that Lionel Messi is in the team, when the ball goes to his feet, something is going to happen. And the Argentina team's squad is the best squad where the players fulfill their own responsibilities properly, they do not prioritize their personal achievements in this regard.
And this is why they are ultimately winning almost all the matches.

However, I would not say that England is going to be an easy opponent for them, rather, England has also performed very well this season and has reached the semi-finals, even though they have star players like Harry Kane, Bellingham and many others. However, I am optimistic about the Argentine team winning.

I wasn’t surprised how this game actually turned out because we all were discussing about France attack and we never looked at their other areas, I was confident Spain will actually get it done if Spain actually scored first because with that kind of midfield they were definitely going to dominate that game and the only way to open up the Spanish team and allow them not to play much was definitely to score first and that was what France failed to do yesterday,

Any team actually going to compete against this Spain must be team full of players that can recover ball very fast. They actually have the best defense of this tournament and that is another big factor again but actually taking away the ball from them will help to score against them. Belgium where the only side that played that well to score against them plus Portugal again which was because they had a similar midfield although one worked out and one didn’t work

The chance for any team to win in this match is 50/50 and i think it can go either way. Both teams have quality but i think that England has a better team on paper but when it comes to their gameplay they dont show it on the field. Argentina is good always at the start of the game and i think they can score early and open up the game. I dont expect much goals but i think we will see it if the game opens up early. Messi will surely be the main player to watch in this game if he plays well Argentina can win this match.

It's difficult to predict which team will win the cup, but I was surprised that France, one of my favorites, lost in the other final. Spain is a strong team, of course, but I thought France would be more effective. France was completely ineffective and is now waiting for their opponent in the third-place match. Spain, on the other hand, will be on the field aiming for the championship regardless of their opponent, and their chances of winning are high.

Well, I agree that Spain is now the favorite, especially after seeing how they managed to stop and dominate France and Mbappe easily, but I wouldn't completely take out England or Argentina from their chances too. As a Bellingham fan, I would really like to see him take England to the final and have another big moment because he is exactly the kind of player who can make the difference in such games; he showed us his importance to the team by scoring, defending, and motivating his comrades.

At the same time, I somehow expect Messi to score tonight and help Argentina, You can clearly see how much he wants that second World Cup, and players like him usually find a way to show up when everything is on the line. A Spain vs Argentina final would be very interesting, especially to see whether Spain can stop Messi the same way they stopped Mbappe

You are right, both teams will perform well today. Because everyone knows that Argentina is the last world champion team. And they are ahead of everyone in team strength. I will never say that England is a weak team, they will give Argentina an equal fight today. Except for the incident with Ghana, England has always performed strongly. Today will be no exception. So even though it is difficult to predict the match, I would like Argentina to go to the final.

Well let's wait and see what this game will produce because the game kinda looks interesting enough, I mean England will be looking to secure their first world cup final for a very long time and who knows maybe they can get to make things work out and someone win Spain in the final but that of course would be if they actually get to survive this Argentina squad tonight. One thing again about this game is that the whole world will be watching and waiting for feedback because the allegations of Argentina favoritism has gone global.

[Iroh]

Honestly I do not know who is going to win today's world cup semifinals but if I am to play the game I will chose Argentina to win even though England has more squad than Argentina and sometimes what spoils play is squad I mean the quality of players, if a team has players that are all equal in terms of rating they will behave the way they like I have seen it happen most times, exactly what happened to France yesterday, there was no good networking between Mbappe, Dembele and few others in that frontline.

I'm hoping to see an interesting game, full of thrilling moments and hopefully, goals. Both sides has strong and formidable players and the win could go either way. I belive lots of people share in your thoughts about Argentina winning the game. If they end up with the win, they would have surely fought hard for it as England is definitely no push over.
The game has now started with both sides energetically playing in hopes of scoring the opening goal. Both sides know what's at stake and would obviously go all out to win the game.

Honestly, I don't think so. It's highly unlikely to cheat in the World Cup. Of course, there might be referee errors, but I don't think Argentina will be given preferential treatment. Their match against England is very important because they will reach the final and keep their championship hopes alive. However, we must also say that England is not an easy team either.

Indeed England and Argentina match is quite tough to pick a favorite, because both teams has good team and they haven't lost any match in this World Cup. England also have luck on their side and they have two players who can win match for them, which are Harry Kane and Bellingham, and that's a good advantage England has over Argentina. I think England is slightly better than Argentina in terms of individual players, so I'm rooting for them to win.

Messi was allowed to rest in Argentina training sessions to be fully ready for this match against England. I see Argentina has their playing style similar to Spain, they can move the ball around very smoothly and all their players at different positions can find good chemistry together. They will have challenge to English players in this match like how French players were challenged and dominated by Spanish players in the first semi final match.

Argentina also play similar to Italy when they don't have balls, and they have very good sense of space on the pitch. England actually have good World Cup in results so far with Tuchel, and this head coach is able to change tactics and have good player substitutions. Beyond Kane and Bellingham, Tuchel is another big hope for England.

I don't really know what the Argentine team has done in this year FIFA world cup that makes you guys believe they are unstoppable, the last time I checked this England game is the only true challenge they are having since the beginning of this tournament, because the least I knew is while others were playing world cup they were playing AFCON, and even though they were not winning without controversy, that's why I keep telling people if they keep the controversy aside they stand no chance against England, but I will just keep calm and watch how it goes tonight.
