  • 5' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 10' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Luka Modric made 474 appearances and scored 33 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 15' - Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 20' - It looks like no one’s ball. Argentina is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 25' - While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Argentina winning 100% of all matches.
  • 30' - Emiliano Martinez has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 39 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 32' - A meaty challenge results in booking for Mateo Kovacic on 32.

  • 39' - What a strike from Julian Alvarez! The score is 2-0.
  • 44' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 44 minutes.
  • 46' - Nikola Vlasic has so much to prove this time. He replaces Mario Pasalic on 46 minute.
  • 50' - The supporters are chanting for Bruno Petkovic. He replaces Marcelo Brozovic on 50 minute.
  • 55' - The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Bruno Petkovic suffering a number of foals already.
  • 60' - Argentina looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Julian Alvarez scoring 2 goals.
