Wow, Masch got skinned badly there.


Yep. He was showing his age.

Pavon for Perez is the right call, though I thought that Higuain might be pulled or Di Maria if he was too tired.

Not necessarily a yellow card foul by Banega, but he gave the ref reason to pull the card. 

Pavon was fouled on the edge of the box.

I like the Pavon addition, even with that "cross/shot"... though he should have dribbled into the box and made Nigeria defend him in the box.

Di Maria appears to be gassed. This is when the Lanzini ACL tear hurts so much.

I would be surprised (pleasantly surprised) if Argentina pulls this out.

But the way they are hustling pleases me.

Meza for Di Maria.

Feeding the ball to Messi no matter what seems to be a bad strategy.

Yeah, I hadn't actually had time to watch many matches this tournament and thought the talk about Argentina just standing around waiting for Messi to do it was overblown. But it seems perhaps understated based on this. Their first, second, and third thoughts are to get it to Messi so he can figure it out.

There was a handball, it appeared to be incidental, Masche's face is red, and the incidental hand ball hurt more than it helped, because it gave the ball to Nigeria.

That being said, it did hit his hand.
