Honestly, I don't understand why the Portuguese coach decided to limit Ronaldo's playing time by putting him on the bench. Of course, Ronaldo's performance in this tournament wasn't impressive, considering he scored only 1 goal. Nevertheless, I think the Portuguese coach should have allowed Ronaldo to enjoy his last matches at the World Cup. So Ronaldo's emotions in those pictures are understandable as he obviously expected that the last World Cup of his career should have been special.
The coach's decision not to choose Ronaldo as a starter because Ronaldo showed dissatisfaction and was angry with the coach's decision when he was subtituted with another player (Group H matches, Portugal vs South Korea). This strategy was effective when Portugal vs Switzerland, but vs Morocco they are failed.
Analyzing the Argentina team here, everyone must say that it is a strong team. Because Messi is the best in the world and all the players in his team are also very experienced. But if Argentina can't win the FIFA World Cup this year, it will be in big trouble in the next life. It is doubtful whether they can reach the final. Because they beat Croatia to confirm the final. But Lionel Messi has won all the cups in his life but if he can win only one world cup then his life is worth. Because the big stars have commented that Messi needs this World Cup very much.
Even without Messi, it doesn't mean Argentina can't win the World Cup in the future. There are many young Argentine players who can become good players, for example Thiago Almada, Julian Alvarez. even though they are not top stars players like Messi, but in the future who knows they can lead Argentina to win the World Cup.
