Argentina's goalkeeper hasn't been very good these last few matches and I have a feeling he'll be the reason Spain will win tomorrow.
I’m so sick of these YouTube thumbnails with these short faggy evaluative declarative statements. Algorithm-optimized bullshit
>>156922824he's yet to show his best version this wctrust him, specially after he said he'll retire if he wins this wc
>>156922824Emi will hold the line.
>>156922997I hope others follow suit because this team is too old, we need fresh blood for the next Copa.
will he be able to pull this off in 4 years?
>>156922942>Does he know?
>>156922824People here are shitting on him for saying he doesn't give a fuck about the Falklands, if he loses it's over
>>156923231+ messi
>>156923331If he wins tomorrow he is definitely not retiring until the next Copa. Too much merch money + he keeps the team morale up + he's still the best player in the NT. But I seriously hope that once he realizes he's not at a good enough level to compete, he retires gracefully out of his own will.
>>156923432He's 100% playing 2030, Argentina plays in Argentina, there's no way he's missing that. Not to mention the fact that Argentina won't play the qualis so that WC match is literally the next time you will play at home
>>156922824 I loved his crazy antics. I'm sad he hasn't pulled any this World Cup due to the lack of penalty shootouts for Argentina.
>>156923504Armani and Rossi are better
>>156923577He cannot do them anymore because (((FIFA))) pussied out after the Qatar finals.
>>156923577not allowed to, apparently goalies trying to gain a tiny advantage in a lopsided contest is verbotten
It's pretty obvious tomorrow match is a humiliation ritual to Dibu>hated by Europeans>hated by Brazilians>hated by Argentinians now because of Falklands/MalvinasArgentina will lose 2 - 1 and he will fail in both goals scored by Spain, it's over for him.
>>156924780>>156924853qrd?
It's ok because Unai will blunder at least one sweep attempt to even things out.
>>156922824amplifico mufa
>>156924886He rattled ngubus too easily so that was deemed racist or something.
>>156924886that's the rundown, FIFA banned goalies from fucking with their opponents during penalties. extremely homosexual move, goalies already have a hard time stopping penalties.
>>156925179>>156925133>>156924853>>156924780Had to be done because it works, everyone would start doing the same.
>>156925133>>156925179>>156925240what did he do? very slanted to disallow that stuff if the stutter, or even full-stop step is allowed
>>156925240everyone was doing the same, everyone was fucking with their opponents in one way or another. FIFA has just progressively banned everything from penalty goalkeeping
>>156925285They disallowed goalies doing distractions and yet the penalty conversion rate this world cup was historically terrible.
>>156925285>what did he do? very slanted to disallow that stuff if the stutter, or even full-stop step is allowedThrow the ball away, would waste time talking to the referee or bothering the shooter so the shooter would have to wait more time to kick (which makes them miss the penalty)Try to watch the full Penalties of France x Argentina in the 2022 World Cup Final to understand.
>>156925303>>156925326I forgot what he did m8s, but cheers.
>>156925240Pretty much, they saw the meta shift would mean every gk would clown on their opponents and waste time trying to rattle them making penalty shootouts last 30 minutes so they had to act.
>>156925298>everyone was doing the same, everyone was fucking with their opponents in one way or anotherBut the one who was bothering more always won.In the 2008 Libertadores final LDU GK would make all Fluminense players wait iver 30 seconds to kick their penalties because he was praying inside the goal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BHXgkrJYUY
>>156923300Woah, woah. Wait. Do you cunts actually care about the Falklands?
>>156925374so? let the goalkeepers have that psychological edge, let them walk around, touch the posts, yell shit etc. that was all an integral part of penalty goalkeeping. now it's just flipping a coin.
>>156923300He literally saved your asses in 2022 though
>>156925446Boomers care.It's a bit of a political divide thing where half the country was against the NT winning for most of the competition until the England game and then they had to flip around and are larping that they care to compensate.
BTW, they should stop with the GKs slapping their hands to try to intimidate the kicker as well, Paraguayan GK did this against Germany and it worked.
>>156924780>>156924853>>156925326Is that why he looked so scared of the possibility of the game going to penalties in the match against Cabo Verde?
>>156925626He was scared of this chad.
>>156925626He was probably shook by the absolute monster goal they scored on him the second time. That'd tilt any keeper.
>>156923432God I pray he doesn't keep pushing it to embarassing levels like Penaldo
>>156923252Would such a man be allowed to goalkeep? I believe we have the technology.
>>156925722Penaldo is just embarassig because he never won a WC.If Messi wins his second World Cup tomorrow he will be allowed to do anything.
>>156925446Only lefties here angry
>>156925446only old people
>>156924780>>156924853 The Norwegian goalkeeper did something similar to Neymar in the Norway vs Brazil game though?
>>156923300He simply spoke the truth instead of participating in the larp kayfabe. If you shit on him, you're shitting on a major reason why you guys even won Messi the world cup
To me this is the best match photo of this world cup.
OH EH OH EHEHOHEH
>>156925446Depends on who you ask, but most of it today is performative, there's no real reasoning behind it, and I'm always surprised when leftists clamour it so much, probably because the enemy this time is white imperialist europeans but the war was caused by a right wing dictatorship that they despiseThe average ape calls for the genocide of english people instead of cursing the drunk boomer who caused the war in the first place and sent all those heckin little kids to their deaths
>>156922824he is more provoleta cheese than man at this point
>>156922824I hope he memes even harder than last year
