The Argentina Supporters, Messi Appreciaters, and Maradona's Belly Admirers Thread!

What makes you think that? The Korean squad is about 4.3cm taller and probably about 5 - 10 lb heavier than the Argentinian side on av.
Also that is not how Maradona remembers Koreans. LOL.

Korea have been weak against the likes of Argentinians in particular but that is not because Koreans are physically weak.

lol that was way back in 80s. You'd be lucky not to get sent off for tackles like that today.

yes Koreans are TALL but Argentina are more likely to outmuscle them as most Koreans are slim in the team. You will see what I'm talking about once you watch the match.

Argentina used to have one of the best defences on the planet.. nowadays not so anymore, but they are extrmely strong in offence.

Again they play JOON DAR, SHOOTI, VAHSHI, SEXY.... I like them...

Vamos Argentina!!!


Messi was sublime, in the first 5 minutes Argies should have been 3-0 up

They r and were my favorite to win it all..!(well along with Spain..!)
They must become more clinical though in order to avoid a k!reee loss and an early exit..!
Spain have an amazing team yet if they weren't coached by one of my favorite tacticians Ever..! I wouldn't have rated them to make it even past the 1/4 finals. Even now I give more chance to brazil to win it all than any European side..! This years crown will be a south American's for sure..!
First choice for me are the argentines..!

Brazil will win the next world cup which they host not this one

As I explained here http://www.persianfootball.com/forum...t=87725&page=8

it was not even a foul let alone a yellow card. Huh cleared the ball away and Maradona ran into it. (Huh got a yellow for another incident but not this one)

Maradona was trash-talking about Korea's "Taekwondo-soccer" right after the WC draw last December and he still remembered who Huh was. Huh successfully tied him up at WC1986. It must have annoyed Maradona even more when Huh paid a visit to Mardona recovering from an injury in a hospital.

It is an interesting human drama. Huh was the guy who marked Maradona in WC1986 and they now meet as the manager of their respective NT.

I fell in love with Argentinian soccer while watching World Cup 90 as an 8 year old. Who can forget the devastating Maradona-Caniggia combo? Or the heroics of Sergio Goicochea coming in as the backup goalie. The reason Argentina is unique in the world is because they are the perfect (and only) blend of hood and class, silk and steel, technique and brute force. They've always been like that, and the current team is no different (ex. Heinze, one of the world's roughest players, while also pure class).

I'd love to see them win it all this year, but have them losing to Spain in the semi's.

Brehme was my favorite player on that team. That penalty in the final was BS though.

One of the most exciting penalty kicks ever:
