On December 3, the match of the 1/8 finals of the World Cup will take place, in which the Argentine national team will play with the Australian national team. The forecast for this match is given by the famous Match TV commentator Konstantin Genich.We can say that the Argentines were lucky at this tournament.
After losing in the first round to the Saudi Arabian national team, Lionel Scaloni's team managed to add and win the two remaining matches, taking first place in the group, having received far from the most formidable opponent. In the third round of the group stage, the Argentines showed their best game, breaking the resistance of the Poles, who could well have been defeated with a big score, and Martinez remained on the bench then. Now the "blue and white" have clearly gained confidence in their own abilities.The Australian national team can be called an amazing team, as in all its matches in the group stage it opened the score in the match.
In the first match with the French, this did not help – they lost with a large score of 1:4. But in the two remaining meetings, minimal victories of 1:0 were retained, the victory over the Danes looks especially expensive. Before that, the last time the Australians reached the playoffs was in 2006 under the leadership of Hiddink, and the current Socceroos head coach Arnold was with a Dutch specialist in the coaching staff. So the old ideas work. The Australians are also distinguished by the fact that there are no really bright stars in their composition. There are Mui, Ryan, Lecky, but all of them are not so famous on the world stage.Konstantin Genich believes that the Australian fairy tale will be over in this match.
This tournament was rich in various surprises and surprises, but most of them will clearly remain at the group stage, and it is difficult to expect such a thing in the playoffs. The Argentine national team has found the right notes in its game, including in defense, so the expert is betting on a dry victory for the South Americans, while not expecting a crushing defeat.
