Argentina vs Mexico
On Saturday night, Argentina takes on Mexico while feeling the effects of one of the World Cup’s greatest upsets. Lionel Messi declared, “We’re dying” after Argentina’s 2-1 loss to Saudi Arabia. Only four days remain for Lionel Scaloni, a must-win game to reassemble his team for a match that has gained enormous significance.
Regardless of the first results, the significance of this match was assured for Mexico’s manager, Gerardo Martino. The manager, born in Rosario, guided his home nation to two Copa America finals before quitting in 2016. The Mexican team would be facing the Argentinians, hoping to register their first win of the tournament.

The white and blues appeared to recover from the humiliating loss to Saudi without any new injury worries, even though their reputations were undoubtedly damaged. On Tuesday, Manager Scaloni neglected several attacking possibilities, sticking with Lautaro Martinez, Angel Di Maria, and Messi for the whole game. He might not resort to doing the same against the NothnAmerican maestros.
In the match against Poland, Martino chose Henry Martin over Raul Jimenez, considering the number of games he played for his club, bringing on the Wolverhampton Wanderers striker for the final 20 minutes. Jimenez may soon make his first start in a competitive match after easing back into shape following an injury-plagued start to the season.
