The result was completely out of the blue

in soccer •  7 years ago 

Argentina were awful in their 3-0 defeat to Croatia.

It was not just that they played poorly, this was a team paralysed by fear and playing without any belief in what they were doing.

Willy Caballero's woeful mistake for the opening goal was the catalyst for them to unravel but - as bad as the error was - the collapse always felt like it was coming.

It is difficult to see a way back from here now.

Indeed, when the final whistle blew it felt like the end already. Argentina could yet lurch on but it can be with little hope and while the supporters in the stadium seemed in a state of shock, deep down few will feel this result has come completely out of the blue.

Perhaps most revealingly of all, neither will Messi.

Emerge!

Whatever you say in this blog is true ,,
I think argentina lost their confidence and got nervous by that goal which happen by the mistake of their goalkeeper..
Also messi was unable to deliver his full skills..
Is there any possiblity for them to go through second stage..

Ofcourse there are possibilities of going through to the second stage, it’s just that there are a lot of calculations involved.

Mathematics FC..... if ‘A’ wins or draw then ‘B’ can outshine ‘C’ to be better then ‘D’
