Main thing for Bosnia now is to get through the rest of the match without injuries and destroy Nigeria and Iran.

And Messi has been very meh. He has only came into the game as Bosnia have dropped off the pace.

Simple fact is, Argentina have the better squad and are able to make impact subs. Bosnia just don't have that or else they could have got a result.

We know. We all heard Mark Lawrenson say that.

I think if Hiquain improved his positioning, he would be almost the complete CF. He's reminds me more of Vieri - someone who is a bit more powerful.




GOOOOOOOOOOOOAL BOSNIA!

Did he? I only heard them talk about Begovic saying that last year.

He did. They were talking abt the same fixture, played as a friendly, where Bosnia matched them (Arg) until they took advantage of their big squad.

I think it's probably a weaker aspect to his game. Watching him earlier on this season, I don't think he was around the 6 yard box enough. He had great finishes around the 18 yard box mind you.

Point being: You copied their commentary verbatim. Plus, I heard it in the 2nd half... 20 or so mins ago.

No, no, no. The point is that I never copied. I stated that it has actually happened as Begovic suggested it did in an earlier fixture. The commentators haven't remarked about it since the first half. Therefore, I'm saying something that they haven't technically picked up on - they're stating that it's more of a case of Argentina improving, rather than Bosnia getting worse.

Only watched as there was a chance of Bosnia coming back into it. Shame but a draw was probably the best they deserved.

I must've been afk at that point. I only heard it in the first half.

I think messi's best days might be behind him, although even at this level he is still one of the best in the world.

If they play like this against someone like germany then i think the result might be the same as last time around

Don't think Argentina has what it takes to go all the way, midfield is somewhat weak. No real playmaker.Also Sabella seems to be a real idiot. At least the backline could've been stronger, but for some unexplainable reason he left out players as Fazio and Gonzalo.....Also Romero in goalinstead of Caballero is :fp:

The 2nd half of the game was great! :D

"Watching him play, I thought God exists because it’s simply embarrassing how good he is" Gigi Buffon

Lol. He didnt say that did he? Arse! Not that Pirlo isnt great but you dont say things like that... Pirlo is the manifestation of God. Again, arse.

He did say that. I am pretty sure he doesnt use this as a proof of God's existence.. juts his way of expressing how good Pirlo is

Really surprised at how little Kun did tonight, but with that midfield and defense, it's not surprising. It's like Galliani built the Argentina side.

If our defender, Bicakcic, didn't stoped Besic (nr7), instead of Messi, Argentina wouldn't scored 2nd goal.
Litle Besic (nr7) played great.

Hopefully we will be able to defeat Iran and Nigeria....
