But I do know that according to you in the overall preview, you mentioned that they won the Copa Cup on Brazil's home turf two years ago or last year. So his playing here, this is going to be his last hurrah, I have to imagine that. And it's really his last feather in his cap is the only thing that I think he has not accomplished as a soccer player is bringing a World Cup home to Argentina

This is truly surprising because the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia came in here as the second worst ranked team in the tournament. So it just boggles the mind that they were able to score two goals against the Argentinians and come away with a win. This is just absolutely unbelievable. I don't know how Saudi Arabia matches up against Mexico and Poland now, but just as completely speechless here today. What an upset
It. Wow, Phil, I genuinely don't even know what to say. This game kicked off at 02:00 Pacific Standard Time. That's 02:00 a.m. So I wasn't planning on waking up to watch it, but I woke up in the middle of the night with a sour stomach and it was about 145. And I thought to myself, you know, 15 minutes till kickoff, I might as well give this at least the first half. It is Leon o messi's Argentina

Every team in here has a shot to advance, and every team in here has a shot to be eliminated. So it is going to be an absolutely intense afternoon. On top of that, we have an absolute heavyweight fight between Poland and Argentina. We have two of the world's best in Lewandowski and Messi going against each other. And this one should be an absolute knockout fight here. This one should be a must watch match. This one is going to be absolutely intense
This is a very open group. If Mexico cannot get their proverbial s*** together, they are in deep trouble here. But I mean, in a group where things are this tight, I almost don't even want to say anymore, because really the only thing that we can do here is sit back, relax, and kind of enjoy the ride. The amount of pressure on these players today is immense

When both of those matches in hand, that's exactly the way you want to go in. They'll face Australia, and I think Australia's magic will probably be used up. I think Argentina just looks too tough going in. They are going in with a heck of a lot of momentum, and I think they'll be able to figure out that defense in Australia. You know, anything can happen
