2008 Beijing Olympics, Men's preliminary round
Argentina's 2nd game
2 AM USA Pacific time
It's at 2 am in my time zone. I'm going to watch it live on TV. Watching it on NBC.
I expect coach Batista to put the same starting lineup from Argentina v. Ivory Coast.
Zabaleta -- Garay -- Pareja -- Monzón
Mascherano-- Gago -- Messi -- Riquelme
Lavezzi -- Agüero
However, Lavezzi was not convincing. Di Maria was as a substitute. El Kun Aguero had plenty of chances but needed finishing skills. As long as the Messi- Aguero partnership is not broken, Argentina will be fine.
Some more 'toque toque' short passes during the whole game.
Prediction: Argentina 3-1 Australia
Struggled to win. Not as sharp. Especially 3 bad passes by Messi, shots wide.
Your thoughts before the game? Final score?
