Pretty angry at this mess with Egypt and Argentina as everyone else has said. Can Switzerland beat Argentina? I wouldn't bet on it but that would be so sweet.
It's understandable that Egypt is really frustrated but as I saw the game they really haven't got that much to complain.
It's like they were in awe with they were doing and couldn't finish the job. The Argentine coach also did some good adjustments.
Senegal played a much better and dominating game against Belgium and also lost a two goal advantage.
Regarding Switzerland they can certainly beat Argentina. They are one of those teams that grind you to an halt and take the life out of your game while being able to get one goal through.
 
Belgium made some key lineup adjustments before the US match and looked like a much more dangerous team, though it's hard to say how much of it was the USMNT not showing up and how much of it was overall improvement without an aged Kevin De Bruyne holding them back.

Switzerland can absolutely give Argentina a tough game. If they can get a lead, they're far more disciplined and experienced, and less likely to capitulate like Egypt did.
 
MY TV is broken. There is no football on it. What am I supposed to do this evening?
I plan to go outside and "touch grass" with my new dBrand iPhone case! 😂

I concur Egypt gave it away after that first Argentine goal, they could have held on better. Argentina did a good job fighting back.

Apart from that, the refereeing blatantly favored Argentina, and disallowed a genuinely magnificent goal on the thinnest of pretexts.

VAR was supposed to help the ref review possibly incorrect calls. Now it has just become interventionist and clearly so to help the anointed party prevail.

I heard that Zlatan had said, at the American channel that he is talking at, that he was more versitatile then Haaland.
Well, I bet that Haaland is more then 1000% more likeablle then him.
Zlatan have pretty much not been seen at all in Sweden since he stopped playing in the National Team.
I don't miss him at all though.

Go go Norway 🇳🇴

Mr. Haaland has been my go to person to watch during this tournament. The guy is amazing and this video kinda proves it as he seems to be really nice too boot!!!

Well, the only versatility Haaland needs is different ways to score goals.
And he's pretty versatile at that.
 
I think France v Morocco tonight could be a really interesting game. Morocco have impressed defensively, and it will be interesting to see whether they can hold the French attack, and whether they can dominate possession as they did against the Netherlands…
