Messi does not perform as well with the Argentinian selection as he does with Barça. Always seems to be the case. |

| Iran would’ve won if they had a Brazilian striker too. |

Rooney was constantly a big disappointment in the World Cup for them. |

Feels like its his year |
Cristiano Ronaldo is the world's greatest player, but Portugal's team is not that good. Let's see how they do during the playoffs.
Argentina must win today. Let's watch Messi's reaction. |

Croatia is no pushover with Modric, Rakitic and Madzukic. I can see them pushing the Argentinians and maybe even pulling out a victory.

Argentina isn't that good this go around. They barely qualified, played sloppy in their first match. I'd call it an upset if they earned a point off of Croatia. |

Croatia lost a ton of goals during the 1st half.
Argentina defense sucks. |

Uh, oh. Croatia scores.
Argentina could very well lose and potentially not make it to the next round.
Argentina goalkeeper fail. |

| If Argentina doesn't make it out of the group stage, if I'm the goalkeeper I'm not coming back to Argentina..... |

Goalkeeper mistake aside, Argentina has looked terrible. They don't deserve to advance after this game and the last.
UPDATE: Nice goal by Modric.

Stick a fork in Argentina, they are done.
Croatia with another goal.
2-0.
Looks like a World Cup title isn't in the works for Messi. |

| That was disgusting, that's a straight send off. Only a caution is a horrible call. |

Argentina is just playing to hurt someone, they know they suck football-wise.

| Argentina is just bad. They will need help to advance and I don't think they will get it. |

Iceland gets a draw and win and Argentina is eliminated.
Iceland loses and gets a win and it will go to goal difference.
Either way Argentina doesn't have a lot of situations where they can advance. |
