I never expected this score. My prediction was that the match would end in a draw since both teams have lots of quality players. It was all over the internet that the absence of Lionel Messi would negatively affect the performance of the Argentina national team. But I was wrong because La Albiceleste put on an extraordinary performance. Dorival Junior is now under pressure to lead this team to the World Cup.
Actually, the Brazil we are seeing now is not as strong a squad as the previous Brazil. If I say that the current Argentina squad is better than Brazil, it is because they are much better in all stages from strikers to defenders. And this is where we expect that Brazil will win or this match will be a draw, which is where we are proven wrong by the Argentina.
In this match, I expected a draw just like you, and Brazil losing was both expected, but I was confused about these two options. However, Argentina brought me out of my confusion right at the beginning of the first half of the match and I could pretty much guess in the first half that Brazil would lose this match and that's what happened. To be honest, I don't have much expectation from Brazil for the next World Cup this time.
In the Brazilian team, except for Raphinha and Vinicius Junior, who are the only two players I consider experienced, all the players and the goalkeeper, they have performed badly and their performance is like that of a new player. It is foolish to compare this squad of the Brazilian team with a strong team like the Argentine team. The Argentine team has experienced players in the defenders and the only thing that was lacking in the attack department was Messi, I can see the lack of experienced players in the Brazilian team in the future.
Rodrigo is good as a striker but in this match he performed like a child, and the Brazilian team players could not hold the ball pass. The Brazilian team players are currently running with the reputation of the past but based on their performance I do not consider them to be experienced team players.
