WC Round of 16: Argentina vs Mexico

[#1 Stunna]

VS

Saturday, June 24, 2006 - Leipzig, Germany - Zentralstadion

​

We're gettin slaughtered.

 

[klear]

Well, maybe if someone happened to dope the entire Argentinian team then maybe you'd have a chance. I don't know about Bravo though, I think he'd have trouble scoring even if he played by himself.

 

[Hendrik]

We're gettin slaughtered.

Be more confident, it's not like the Argies field 11 super humans or have looked invincible so far. It's one simple knock-out game in which anything can happen.

Now c'mon Mexico please

 

[Nuno]

On paper, Mexico should pretty much get owned. In real life, anything can happen. Remember the Greeks. Trust me on this one.

 

[CarlosDanger]

Argentina 2-1 Mexico
Crespo, Cambiasso-Borgetti (a header of course)

I think Mexico can play ok..they won't be pushed over, but they won't win either....
Omar Bravo.... que pinche penal tan feo.......

 

[Axolote]

Anything can happen...Its only one game.

I expect a difficult match, maybe 1-0 or 2-1. With a great game by Riquelme.

Hopefully we wont need Messi

 

[MaSsiVe]

4-2

Saviola, Roman, Sorin, Tevez
Fonseca, Pardo



should be a hot match

 

[Lennon]

Argentina 3 Mexico 1

 

[Back Door Skip]

I'll be glad if we don't get humiliated. A replay of Confed Mexico would be perfect.

 

[TheBlueBalla]

I hate to be negative, but I think Argentina is going to steamroll their way through this one. They have the swagger back of their predecessors

 

[jackdaw21]

buh bye Mexico :boohoo:

buena chinga que le espera a la volpe en Mexico

 

[MaSsiVe]

haha

 

[ManU2000]

Just to be somewhat optimistic, I'll say 1-0 Mexico with a Morales FK, just like Copa America.

All I ask is that the team make it competitive, if we can somehow manage to win, all the better then. I'd like to go on my vacation to Vegas Sunday in a good mood and not let this bother me.

 

[Fernandez]

Crespo hat-trick and a Heinze mom performance.

Heres the team Id like to see for Mexico...

...........................Oswaldo
.............Maza........Osorio........Salcido
Castro...............................................Morales
.....................Marquez..Pardo
.............Kikin...........Guille
............................Borgetti

But more than likely...

........................Oswaldo
.............Marquez..Osorio...Salcido
Mendez......................................Pineda
...................Pardo...Torrado
.........................Sinha
...................Bravo....Borgetti

One thing thats for sure, Riquelme will have an aggressive man mark on him just like we did it to Argentina in the Copa America and Confeds Cup.

 

[newbie original]

Arg 3:0 Mexico...I can't see any 2nd place team beating Argentina.

 

[ManU2000]

Heres the team Id like to see for Mexico...

...........................Oswaldo
.............Maza........Osorio........Salcido
Castro...............................................Morales
.....................Marquez..Pardo
.............Kikin...........Guille
............................Borgetti

Guille has been a dissapointment but that could be said about everyone pretty much. It's not like we've got anyone better to bring on though, we've got nothing going forward if Borgetti isn't there.

Yea, I want to see Sinha play as well but only as a sub, thats how hes effective. And mark my words... if we're losing, and theres no way of coming back, Lavolpe WILL bring in Chiquis. I guarantee that.

 

[jackdaw21]

I think we better RISK this **** like hell

.. Ochoa
.............Marquez........Osorio........Salcido
Castro............................................ ...Morales
..................... Arellano..Pardo
.............Kikin.......................Bravo
............................Borgetti

and they should start playing Guardado

 

[RUSI]

I am kind of scared of this match

Everyone thinks we will have to only show up to win. Hopefully the players don't. Mexico are a much better team than they have shown

Vamos Argentina!

I think Sorin coming back after not playing last match will be the biggest factor of this match.
