Live scores: Argentina 0-0 Mexico
Min. 34 | Messi with the center shot that goes to the crossbar, Ochoa tried his fists out, but the ball goes not so far back, it goes up against Lisandro and there is a foul on the Mexican goalkeeper.
Min. 33 | Mexico cleared, but in the second play, Vega is hasty, sweeps over a De Paul who had nowhere to go, and gives away a free kick that is almost a corner.
Min. 32 | Good coverage from Kevin to disarm Acua’s pass with Di Mara. Be corner.
Min. 30 | I touched back for Ochoa, the ball bursts and spikes, Vega was already taking shape, but both he and Chucky were ahead.
That’s how the first half hour of the game goes. ZERO shots on goal. The only one, the one that Moreno was unable to close the clamp on.
More than a sedan, it’s a Toyota Yaris
Min. 28 | Acua puts an iron on Kevin when sweeping. BRUTAL stomp, the assists get in, Marc Orsato… but the card doesn’t get it out.
Min. 26 | From a throw-in, Kevin Álvarez reaches the bottom line for the first time, hits a forced cross. He goes behind the cabin. And by itself there were not many people for the auction.
Min. 25 | Finally one from Argentina, playing inside, they open up Montiel and put in a horrendous center that goes away.
It didn’t count by itself, it was half a step ahead.
It is the second that the albiceleste has like this, but nothing dangerous in the arches yet. VERY TENSE match.
Min. 22 | They fought in midfield, Araujo sweeps Acua with everything, points the ball, but then he takes the Argentine winger.
Reprimanded the one from America, the first today.
More than a sedan, it’s a Toyota Yaris
Min. 21 | I tried on the Mexico board, from Guardado down to Chvez, who lifts it up too much and Dibu catches it at the far post without problems.
Min. 20 | How well Chucky plays as a pivot, the race is coming, Lozano ends up on the ground in the race with Otamendi. He called the foul (it didn’t seem like it), but if he did it… where was the yellow one? It was against…
Min. 17 | Lautero fights for the ball, collides with Guardado and the 18th goes to the ground. Nothing counted because Martínez was offside.
Min. 17 | De Paul with his own party, busts a pass in Orsato and there is a boat ashore. Bring a party from Atleti.
Min. 16 | Chucky with a diagonal, can’t shoot, and it all ends with Herrera committing a foul with his arm, trying to cover.
Min. 12 | What a force with which Guardado sweeps to dispute the ball with De Paul. Everything is played in these first minutes.
Min. 11 | De Paul has several drives with serious problems from the pressure of Mexico. High above bother the Aztecs. We will see how long they can sustain this rhythm in the physical.
Min. 10 | NEAR MEXICO! Guardado crossed, Montes touched the near post, extended and Moreno did not get to push it by millimeters.
Min. 9 | Vega’s collection is terrible, but on the second play, Montiel needs Chucky. The pothole is coming.
Min. 8 | De Paul gets into trouble, he stole Vega but could never find a shooting position and Chucky ends up negotiating a corner from the other side.
Min. 6 | Couple of minutes of pause in which they see Montiel and the hostilities are resumed.
Min. 5 | WHAT DID YOU MARK ORSATE! The 2 vs 1 of Mexico was coming, Vega was carrying her, Montiel runs around, trying to cover and collides forearm with face. Everyone is complaining: some for cardboard, others because they took away a dangerous one from Mexico.
Min. 3 | Messi already gave clarity to the first, at the bumps he cleaned the area with Acua, a center that covers Lautaro and Moreno clears. It all ends with Guardado’s sweep to kick off the other side.
Min. 2 | Several notes already at the beginning. Herrera plays 5, with Guardado on the left and Chvez on the right. Gallardo committed the first foul on Di Mara, close to the midfield.
