La derrota de Arabia Saudita provocaba que este partido fuera una final para ambas selecciones. Los argentinos llegaban con la presión de haber perdido el primer encuentro, mientras los mexicanos necesitaban de un empate para soñar con el primer lugar del grupo.
Las alineaciones eran las siguientes:
MEX: Guillermo Ochoa, Kevin Álvarez, Néstor Araujo, César Montes, Héctor Moreno, Jesús Gallardo, Héctor Herrera, Andrés Guardado, Luis Chávez, Hirving Lozano y Alexis Vega.
ARG: Emiliano Martínez, Gonzalo Montiel, Nicolás Otamendi, Lisandro Martínez, Marcos Acuña, Rodrigo de Paul, Guido Rodríguez, Ángel Di María, Lionel Messi, Mac Allister y Lautaro Martínez.
Me sorprendió la alineación del Tata saliendo con línea de 5, nos condenaba a intentar no perder. Además, dejo a Edson Álvarez en la banca, considero que él era una pieza clave para este partido, es un centrocampista que recupera muchos balones y sabe jugar rápido.
Hello friends of full sports. The most anticipated game of the group stage was played and Argentina's victory leaves Mexico with one foot out of the World Cup.The defeat of Saudi Arabia caused this match to be a final for both teams. The Argentines arrive with the pressure of having lost the first match, while the Mexicans need a draw to dream of first place in the group.
The lineups were as follows:
MEX: Guillermo Ochoa, Kevin Álvarez, Néstor Araujo, César Montes, Héctor Moreno, Jesús Gallardo, Héctor Herrera, Andrés Guardado, Luis Chávez, Hirving Lozano and Alexis Vega.
ARG: Emiliano Martínez, Gonzalo Montiel, Nicolás Otamendi, Lisandro Martínez, Marcos Acuña, Rodrigo de Paul, Guido Rodríguez, Ángel Di María, Lionel Messi, Mac Allister and Lautaro Martínez.I was surprised by Tata's lineup coming out with a line of 5, it condemned us to try not to lose. In addition, I left Edson Álvarez on the bench, I consider that he was a key player for this game, he is a midfielder who recovers a lot of balls and knows how to play fast.
En el segundo tiempo los mexicanos ya se encontraban cansados permitiendo al rival tomar el control del juego. Los minutos transcurrían, pero al 65′ el mejor jugador que ha tenido este deporte disparaba al arco haciendo un gol milimétrico que acabaría con las ilusiones del tri. Cerca del final Enzo liquidaría el encuentro con un auténtico golazo a segundo palo.
“Sabíamos que iba a ser muy difícil, porque México nos planteó un partido diferente. No fue bueno el primer tiempo de los dos, corregimos en el segundo tiempo, con Guido (Rodríguez) entre los centrales, y emparejamos en el medio. Y después vieron lo que pasó. El 10 decidió el partido. Atrás tiene todo un grupo que lo apoya, que sabe la importancia que tiene”.
The first half started, the Albiceleste wanted to take control of the game, however, they could not adapt and the tri would take advantage of those minutes to apply high pressure and steal many balls. The Argentines looked a bit uncomfortable and Paul couldn't connect 100%, due to this the most dangerous move would come for those with the green number, a free kick by Alexis Vega that Dibu Martínez would save.In the second half, the Mexicans were already tired, allowing the rival to take control of the game. The minutes passed, but at 65′ the best player this sport has ever had shot on goal making a millimeter goal that would put an end to the illusions of the tri. Near the end Enzo would settle the match with a real goal at the far post.
“We knew it was going to be very difficult, because Mexico offered us a different game. The first half of the two was not good, we corrected in the second half, with Guido (Rodríguez) between the central defenders, and we evened out in the middle. And then they saw what happened. The 10 decided the game. He has a whole group behind him that supports him, who knows how important it is."

Si queremos clasificar necesitamos ganar el miércoles por una diferencia de 4 goles y que ARG derrote a POL. El no depender de ti para pasar a la siguiente ronda es lo peor que te puede suceder, es el resultado de un trabajo mal hecho. Supongamos que conseguimos la clasificación y logramos pasar como segundos del grupo, en los octavos nos enfrentaríamos a la campeona del mundo, solo un milagro nos llevaría al quinto partido. La oportunidad se presentó, pero no estábamos listos.
Me quedo con los mejores momentos del encuentro y que estuvimos a solo 25 minutos de hacer historia. ¡Never Give Up!
I am disappointed, I have no words to describe what happened today, the story of 4 years ago was repeated once more. In the first half, Mexico had an idea of the game and it was to press and then look for the counterattack, however, in the second half they played nothing, the forwards were far behind, the whole team was defending. There was no way to reach the opponent's goal.If we want to qualify we need to win on Wednesday by a difference of 4 goals and for ARG to defeat POL. Not depending on you to go to the next round is the worst thing that can happen to you, it is the result of a job poorly done. We qualified and managed to pass as second in the group, in the round of 16 we would face the world champion, only a miracle would take us to the fifth game. The opportunity presented itself, but we were not ready.
I'll take the best moments of the match and that it was only 25 minutes from making history. Never give up!
