Let’s talk about the World Cup finals on Sunday, Argentina vs France’s peak showdown!
was infected with the flu on Pamecano, Rabio, and Koman . Varane and Conate were also hit one after another. Chu Ameni had a buttocks contusion, Teo had a knee discomfort, and France had a lot of bad news before the World Cup final, which made fans who believed they won the championship again missing another wave. Not long ago, Giroud was exposed to have a knee injury. In the last joint training before the game, Turam replaced Giroud and started with Mbappe and Dembele.
We all know that Giroud is the key to France's restraint of Argentina. Argentina has poor air defense capabilities and their average height is shorter. The highest player in the team is Romero at 185. How to defend against Giroud at 193?
Mbappe was also placed in the No. 9 position during training. Turam Jr. and Dembelle were tied with each other. Can he play like this? Yes, but it's very risky. Turam has stronger defensive attributes and can also break through, which can alleviate France's wing defense problem to a certain extent, but Mbappe has proved many times that he is difficult to compete with the No. 9 position. Such adjustments are a masterpiece. If he doesn't perform well, he may be Guardiola's final.
According to the conservative level of Deschamps , Guoguo is more willing to believe that this is the smoke bomb released before the game. After all, in the second half of the training class, Giroud appeared in the lineup again, so it is very likely that Deschamps is just practicing the possibilities of multiple formations and confusing their opponents. After all, when the World Cup is final, both sides are basically in a clear state. It is still more difficult to deal with when turning one set of questions into two sets. Of course, perhaps Deschamps will really be like , Dutch , after Argentina's physical fitness has declined, it is also an effective way to hit Giroud to hit the header.
Argentina has had a day off more than France, but don't forget that France has won smoothly so far, and has never played overtime, and its physical fitness is still relatively abundant. They have previously reported that the injured players, Varane, Teo, Connate and Koeman, have all returned to training, and there are no serious injuries at the moment. At this time, the players must be slightly injured and unable to get off the line of fire.
Argentina is also in this situation. Messi and were previously rumored to have a knee discomfort, but it was not a big deal. Compared with 4 years ago, Argentina's lineup strength has been greatly improved, especially in the midfield, which the country has written in previous articles. The dominance of the French team has declined compared to the last World Cup, which is related to the absence of many of their main players. Therefore, although France is stronger on paper, it may not be safe.
What is France’s biggest shortcoming? The defensive loopholes on the left side are the most obvious. Teo, who has strong offense and weak defense, and Mbappe, who basically does not participate in the return to defense, have given the opponent too many opportunities on their left side. The game of playing in England is very obvious, and Morocco also got a lot of opportunities here. But they have to face Messi and di Maria , which is very restrained. Especially the erratic performance of goalkeeper Lori , the requirements for the defenders are even higher.
In addition, France's midfield strangling ability is also something I am more worried about today. This is a position where they have become significantly weaker than four years ago. Without the sweeping strangle of Kante and Pogba , it is particularly difficult to face opponents like Argentina. We all know that Argentina does not have speed players and lacks wingers with strong ball-holding ability, so their offense seems to rely on Messi, but through creative connections in the middle, the way of playing through the opponent's defense is always effective. This is why Argentina is always very capable of seizing opportunities. In this regard, France should be extra careful.
So I don’t worry too much about Argentina’s offense, especially when the World Cup is final, neither side will take risks. They are fighting for the game on the defensive end and the ability of both sides to seize opportunities. Like France, I am more worried about Argentina’s defense. Argentina's defenders have poor air defense capabilities and no advantage in speed. They performed quite stably in previous games. One of the key reasons is that they did not withstand the real test.
Because Croatia's attack does not have much threat, and the Dutch offensive problem also exists objectively. Even so, Argentina's defense line seems very embarrassed under the impact of the Netherlands. Today they are facing France, which has both a three-dimensional overall coordination and talented stars forcibly opening up the situation. It is obviously not on the same level as the Netherlands and Croatia.
finals have always only one idea. No one wants to take risks first, but it depends on who dares to take risks first. When both sides have obvious shortcomings in the defense and mutual restraint, I may choose to believe that France is the side who seizes the opportunity and is optimistic that they will not defeat in regular time.
