second place: Argentina team
ranked second, another team of the South American two-strong team, Argentina team.
Out of expectations for the Argentina team to win the cup again in recent years, and the emotional buff bonus that should be the last dance of Messi and , this time the team's call for winning the championship is very high. As the most recent Cup of America champion, Argentina finally crossed the mountain of Brazil and ended the embarrassment of not beating Brazil for several years with 1-0. This was a very big breakthrough and enhanced the confidence of the Argentina team.
Argentina currently ranks third in the world, with a total value of 671 million euros. Its value is at a low level among the teams on the list, but this does not affect Argentina's strength and the probability of winning the cup. Argentina is in Group C in this World Cup, with Mexico, Saudi and Poland, and Argentina stands out in overall strength. Argentina needs to consider whether to qualify first or second in the group. However, according to the matchup roadmap, if Argentina qualifies second in the group, it is likely to encounter strong teams such as France, England and Germany in the next knockout round. Compared with the possible encounters in the semi-finals and Brazil, the latter's difficulty coefficient is still a little lower. So if this is the case, as long as Argentina does not let the water go, the probability of being the first in the group is very high.
Advantages:
Argentine players mainly come from La Liga , Serie A and Ligue 1 . The overall age is similar to that of Brazil, but the midfield and backcourt are very young, and they should be very good in terms of confrontation and running. Although the overall forward line is a bit old, Messi and di Maria are still in good shape. The backcourt is young and strong, and can defend, and the frontcourt can attack. This is very different from the Brazilian team's attack power in the frontcourt but the aging of the backcourt. Because Messi and others seem to have an old frontcourt, it is not a disadvantage, so I am more optimistic about the Argentina team in comparison.
Disadvantages:
There are a lot of injuries on the list of Argentina. According to the information disclosed so far, there may be a significant change. Then the players' running-in and subsequent injury management need to be controlled well. Don't lose track of this issue, especially the forward line.
Results prediction:
According to the ideal route, Argentina team predicts that they qualify for the top spot in the group, 16-to-8-to-8-to-4-to-the-Netherlands or the United States, and Brazil in the semi-finals (the most ideal is that Brazil was eliminated by Portugal or Uruguay ), and the finals are played against England. In this way, Argentina has the flattest route among the powerful and has the least obstacles.
individuals estimate that Argentina's upper limit is the 2022 World Cup championship, and the lower limit is also the semi-finals.
