FIFA has decided not to reschedule England's World Cup Round of 16 clash against Mexico, meaning the match will go ahead at its original kick-off time.

As you where fellas.

Hopefully half the Mexican team get hit by lightning allowing Kane to bag a screamer.

Real complacent passes to nowhere from Argentina

Wow.

[LiquidMetal14]

Very soft and bad man marking by Argentina

 

[Sabejita]

What happens? Argentina completely asleep.

 

[clarky]

Probably not going to happen but this would be the biggest upset ever.

 

[KyoZz]

LMAO

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Bring in Alvares for Lautaro and take out one of the backs.

 

[Insane Metal]

Please Cape Verde score another one

 

[Agave]

LETS GOOOO, YES YES YES YES

 

[clarky]

CV need the water break pronto.

 

[EviLore]

Nice save on the free kick

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Typical on target Messi hit minus a little bit of pace.

 

[clarky]

Come on boys you got this. Need to take them down in normal time.

 

[Zephyranthes]

Argentina is clearly the better team, but they got caught sleeping on that Capo Verde goal. CPV goalie is playing out of his mind. Could get interesting if it goes to penalty kicks.

get up messi

 

[clarky]

Cape Verde to beat Argentina? You can't be serious. Surely not?

 

[SirKicksalot]

This already counts as a win in my heart. Fucking lol, what else is there to say?

 

[Gp1]

Told ya that Argentina is a mid team with Messi...

Their pre world cup preparation friendlies was a pure joke.

 

[poppabk]

How was that not a foul there at the end on the Cape Verde player. I wound it back and it looked as blatant as it gets and right in front of the ref.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

It's definitely a good performance on Argentina's part but those passive mistakes and soft defending puts them in a little awkward position.

The thing is, I don't have the same nervousness as I did in the last WC. They are clearly superior and have created lots of chances and Cape Verde have had a good defensive position that has been broken quite a few times. I suspect that's what will happen in this extra time except Argentina won't forgive as much and put the game away.

Pens are on the table as we are in extra time.

 

[Zephyranthes]

Seven saves by CPV goalie at the end of regulation is insane.

 

[EviLore]

Vozinha really keeping them in this.

 

[near]

I see an upset coming.

 

[EviLore]

Was just a matter of time

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Argentina actually helping Messi.

The boy from Manchester United makes it.

 

[FireFistAce]

Apples and oranges, but lol, hell nah

Even compared to other centre-forwards, there are so many that I would consider to be much better than him: Pele (obviously), Ronaldo Nazario, Suarez, Lewandowski and so much more.

He is great, but far from one of the greats. Like, a mile far.

Kane is #27 on the list

I am not sure I would put strikers who played in the 1930s or 40s above Harry Kane.

 

[newtypepilot]

what a snipe

 

[clarky]

Go for a shit, coming back and they've scored. FFS.

 

[kpopSuperstar]

Kapp Verde is team consisting of random players across European Leagues that has various connections to Kapp Verde that allows them to play for the nation.

Them getting to this point is a wild thing. Argentina, every player and manager, never took Kapp Verde serious, and they are paying for it.

 

[EviLore]

Ahahaha wow
