Iran wins the first half 0-0

Get good Argentina

 

[kamorra]

I see all of these people claiming Argentina is shit, but breaking this kind of defense isn't easy. I don't know what people are expecting.

A world class team with the best player in the world against a low low-tier defending team. I know what I expected.

 

[Pocky4Th3Win]

I see all of these people claiming Argentina is shit, but breaking this kind of defense isn't easy. I don't know what people are expecting.

The fact that Argentina is still getting so many shots shows that they have the talent. One will slip in sooner or later, as long as they keep the pressure on.

 

[Boudica]

They said Nigeria sucked too for basically not being abe to get a ball through Irans rediculous 10 man defense formation.

Please don't compare Argentina to Nigeria. These fools are getting decent chances that they aren't finishing, and Messi is just lol.

 

[Linkyn]

How did he lose the ball just now?!

 

[Ahmad_742009]

hahah thanks
dat fast reaction to the camera

 

[zroid]

Agrentnia pls

 

[Ingeniero]

Higuain is soo shit.

 

[FootballFan]

Higuain...jesus christ.

 

[mellz]

Higuain out

 

[ColossalLazy]

Argentina pls why u so shit

 

[CMojicaAce]

Higuain....

 

[Forgotten_Taco]

Iran is really boring to watch.

 

[bjaelke]

Higuain's been proper trash

 

[Wilbur]

Mad props to Iran here, they're very well organised.

 

[Carbonox]

Higuain sucks.

 

[Acorn]

Jesus someone needs to teach Argentina how to head the ball .

Bringing Batistuta out of retirement is their only hope there.

 

[Juz]

Iran to go through in this group with three 0-0 draws.

 

[NaM]

That was bad.

 

[Kandinsky]

I see all of these people claiming Argentina is shit, but breaking this kind of defense isn't easy. I don't know what people are expecting.

This is true.

 

[Arjen]

Laugh all you want guys, Iran already has more points then Spain and England combined.

 

[djplaeskool]

Iranian hype is the best hype.

 

[manual4]

well done iran, tbfh

 

[megabytecr]

Wow Iguain so slow and bad!! Who can come for him? Lavezzi, Pastore?

 

[Lkr]

did Iran score in qualifying or did they just draw themselves into the group draw(haaaaaaaaah)?

 

[Toxi]

It doesn't matter how many shots you fire if you can't hit a goal.

 

[Valente]

Jose Mourinho must be wishing that he could be as good as Carlos Queiroz.

 

[KingSnake]

Argentina's defense seems quite bad at set pieces.

 

[Mory Dunz]

They said Nigeria sucked too for basically not being abe to get a ball through Irans rediculous 10 man defense formation.

Hope for Nigeria exists

 

[Clegg]

Higuian is doing nothing right.

I understand wanting an orthodox centre forward on the pitch , but he's added nothing to the performance.

 

[gashikunFLCL]

Messi...zzzzzz

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Argentina always suffers if they cant make a goal , Iran may be able to win it if the resist 20 mins in the 2nd half or so

 

[akaoni]

Laugh all you want guys, Iran already has more points then Spain and England combined.

Sometimes the truth is hard to accept.

 

[Niks]

Argentina too slow.

 

[kamorra]

Perfectly executed game plan. Ugly but it's working. Good job Iran.

 

[WAR recon zero]

Wow Iguain so slow and bad!! Who can come for him? Lavezzi, Pastore?

Pastore is not even in the squad

 

[FootballFan]

Argentina should give Iran possession and hit them on the counter. No way they are getting through with these terrible touches and finishing.

 

[Frustrated_Grunt]

So my brother texted me that he bet $1400 on Argentina to win. This was supposed to be a peaceful game and now I'm worried for him.

 

[Hystzen]

it's pretty amusing seeing Argentina struggle lol.

Its interesting to say least lol

I mean France smashed Switzerland easily while people said Argentina should rout Iran and it not happening.

 

[Kall201]

Well, this strategy seems to be working ok for Iran, as boring as it is for us to watch.

 

[NaM]

Higuian is doing nothing right.

I understand wanting an orthodox centre forward on the pitch , but he's added nothing to the performance.

Who would you use instead? Lavezzi? Palacios? pls

 

[akaoni]

So my brother texted me that he bet $1400 on Argentina to win. This was supposed to be a peaceful game and now I'm worried for him.

I laughed sadistically when I read that just now. I hope he loses it all.

 

[RoySFNR]

Are you people seeing Higuain play for the first time or something? He always sucks and then he bags 2 and steals your girlfriend and stuff.

 

[black_13]

Fuck I'm happy for my team right now! They know well to not bother attacking and just defend!

I hope it stays same second half but that will need a miracle.

 

[JoJoShabadoo]

LOL here in the empty streets of Bs.As. during halftime I just hear a dog barking in the distance hahaha. We need some goals!!!

 

[Mobius 1]

This shit best not happen on Monday against Cameroon.

 

[ErasureAcer]

Left forward on Argentina is quick as hell.

Iran needs to pass the ball better but more importantly quicker.

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Laugh all you want guys, Iran already has more points then Spain and England combined.

 

[bumbillbee]

did Iran score in qualifying or did they just draw themselves into the group draw(haaaaaaaaah)?

Hilarious. They finished top of their group (which included South Korea who they beat, by the way). I'll admit it's not that hard to qualify in Asia given the general quality of the teams there but Iran's consistently one of the better sides in the region.

 

[Lkr]

What are the tie breakers after goal differential?
