Lionel Messi has carried Argentina for so long, it’s hard to remember a supporting cast around him this good.
Livakovic was lucky not to get a straight red card for the challenge, denying an obvious goal scoring opportunity for those of us who officiate, as he was nowhere near the ball when bundling into Alvarez.
Desperate to close down Messi, Brozovic was pulled out of his position in midfield and gave space for Alvarez to run down the middle.Article content Down 2-0, Croatia tried to battle back in the game, but simply did not have the legs to keep up to the most dynamic Argentina side since it won the 1986 World Cup with Diego Maradona. That team also had one of the most talented players of all time, but featured an outstanding supporting cast.
Knowing someone else is able to ring the bell here, the world can sit back and admire his genius, like they did on Argentina’s third goal, 24 minutes into the second half.
