A brief review of the last months.
Argentina is now TWICE GOLD MEDALIST in football! And has broken a record that Hungary had. Argentina has won 12 consecutive olympic matches! Six in Athens and six in Beijing! Sub 20 coach “Checho” Batista (1986 champion along with Maradona) took command of this olympic team. He knows how to treat great sportmen like Riquelme and Messi as well as little known ones.
A big contribution left this olympic team! Angel Di Maria emerged from this team and earned a citation for the first team!
Today I was in the stadium watching Argentina vs Paraguay. What can I see in this big Argentina team?? Well… this is NOT a team…
At first, everything seemed WRONG. The annoying rain. Riquelme’s free kick smashing the crossbar. Heinze BIG BIG HUUUUUGE mistake allowing an own goal and the goalkeeper injury. And Carlos Tevez being sent off.
In the second half, Argentina had to play with 10 men only. Basile’s changing Di Maria (playing fairly good) by Kun Agüero was good. And removing Heinze from the team was kind of good. Because the player admitted his huge mistake but was kind of angry with the coach. Cata Diaz replacing him did a good job!
But…
This group of people is just THAT. Players gathered together. Current coach Alfio “Coco” Basile is careless!! He doents seem able to manage a TEAM of SUPER STARS PLAYERS!!! DAMN!! I’m starting to become FURIOUS with him! Even though Boca Juniors won a lot of things with him in charge.
Riquelme missed many passes. I know that. But he built a WALL with Messi, who served Agüero to score! Riquelme + Messi + Tevez = … Still nothing… They 3 are all EXCELLENT players! Why do they not work well together????
There was no team. There were players trying to do their best by their own…
Why Cuchu Cambiasso is still on the team? He doesnt seem to fit in it anymore. After the match, he told the press “people go home satisfied with the final result…” AM I SATISFIED??? HELL NO!
Let’s see if Alfio Basile finds the team in the road to World Cup… I hope so…
Messi NEW HAIRCUT!

Argentina was too great during the Olympics! I tried to watch every game, but I just worked out to see 1,5 of them^^. At least I got up at 6 o’clock in the Saturday morning just to see the final^^ Angel Di Maria is really great. I know him and Aguero from last years U-20 or U-21, don’t know. Something Argentina won. I’m sure you know what I mean. Eurosport, TV programme from Germany, sent 24 hours long those games! Always replays and replays!
I must confess, this report is like one of a newspaper. Well done!!!
Haha, LOL! Sorry, I don’t want to laugh, but you say it right! I hate coaches saying shit! And I hate when the coach can’t answer the reporter’s question without avoiding the real answer. And I get angry when the coach secures his team and don’t give clear statements that his team made shit by losing a dumb game. For me, a coach must stand certain in front of the press.
Don’t be worried, Argentina makes the way to South Africa. Switzerland doesn’t…..
