Anyone watch the interview of the Mexican coach? He cried about analysts not giving his team a chance, and then went on to say that they will see come tomorrow. Seemed very confident, but never looked at the camera, using a hat to cover his eyes. Weird guy.
What are everyones thoughts on this match?
My picks:
Argentina to advance(-500)
Argentina ML(-222)
I honestly don't see the Argentines getting knocked out by this young Mexican squad. They show a lot of confidence, especially from their coach, and have all the rite to, but the Argentines are simply the better team here. The Mexican team plays a very spread offense, which will hopefully open up numerous opportunities for the Argentine superstars. The Mexican attacking style will also create a handful of counters for the quick Messi to attack with. On top of this, Messi will probably be drawing double teams like he has been all World Cup, opening up Tevez, Aguero and Higuain. All this plus Argentines experience, pure talent, and heart should be enough to move them in the quarter finals.
