This game will be nice. I believe Argentina will be too strong for Angola but both teams will experiment. I think Argentina needs the result more to ease their fans' tension. Friendly losses to England and Croatia..though not crucial, means that they might want a good result a little more than usual at this stage. Argentina has an unsettled forward line..I think Crespo is the only man who sure of his spot up top, because he is the only out and out target man. All the others are mobile, withdrawn forwards. I like Tevez the best between Tevez, Messi and Palacios. Messi will get the run out from the start because, as he stated in article last week..he is not fit. Argentina defense and goalie are their achilles heal...hope Aimar get a decent sweat. He needs to be ready if teams start to manhandle Riquelme. Look out for Lucho Gonzales...most underrated midfielder on that team. Hope he plays
Angola..I know little about....BUT their similarities to T&T are pretty funny. They are drawn in the same group as their former colonial masters...Portugal. This is the match their entire nation is going crazy about. Most of their players make their living in the Portugues lower divisions...sound similar enough yet. Oh and in case you were wondering...they have a hard working, ball winning midfielder call Figueiredo...who so happens to be white , fits in perfectly with the team and shows that skin color ain't that important. I wonder if he gets the same attention by the Portuguese media as Birchall has gotten from the English. Unlike Birchy he was actually born in Angola to portugues parents but left as a kid and spent most of his life in Portugal...nice story for him..especially since he is a bit older than Birchy and this was probably his last chance to play in a WC....(One of the Angolan goalies is white also..but let's not spoil my whole T&T/Angolan similarity angle nah
)
