A star studded Argentine team were last night bashed and beaten by a more precise and determined Croatian team. The Croatians last sealed the top spot in Group D with a 3:0 win over Argentina, thereby leaving them with praying for a miracle to progress ahead of Nigeria and Iceland who will both clash today in the 2nd Leg of the World cup matches.
The Argentine Coach Sampaoli looked frustrated which was transferred to the players on the field of play. The Argentine Captain was relatively quiet all night throughout the encounter, he watched on Rebic took advantage of Willy Caballeros hauler to give the Croatians the lead before Modric drove in a curler to double the advantage and Ivan Rakitic ended the contest if there ever was one. This results leave them 3rd in the group behind Croatia and Iceland who will play Nigeria later on today.
Will LIONEL MESSI and Co. qualify? That we shall see later on as things unfold.
