World Cup Prediction France vs Argentina
The first match of the round of 16 of the World Cup 2018
It is a match between two countries with wide traditions in the competition, two teams that have already been world champions and looking for a return to the most glorious times. For France, this growth has been sustained over the last few years, with the introduction of younger players in the group that presents itself to major competitions, in search of a title that was very close in 2016, but that failed to lose with Portugal in the final.
One of the problems in France has been the lack of definition of Didier Deschamps before some of the options that have to take in the squad.
The team lacks a game organizer and, therefore, prefers to present themselves with a more mobile offensive front, with Mbappé and Dembelé (or Lemar) from the tracks, but without losing Giroud as an area reference, the which takes Griezmann to a more backward position.
With issues that are also defensive, the left-hand side can be used by Matuidi, with Pogba acting in profile with Kanté, in a solution that turns out to be the best compromise.
However, France is missing a great display to put it among the strongest of the championship.
Argentina reach the knockout round despite all the problems this group has experienced. Despite qualification, the coach’s project is unknown, having been questioned after the 0-3 defeat with Croatia.
The added point against Iceland ended up being fundamental, since on the final day, with a team already more mounted around the emotional commitment than of a game idea, the Argentines sweated to win a victory that is epic at various levels, but did not offer much more than a few minutes in the first part of a good understanding between Messi and Banega.
Prediction France vs Argentina:
Still, between two teams that try to affirm, this will always be a triple game.
