yes it's funny. An intense game.

Argentina vs. Chile should not be about scoring goals, but more about red cards. This referee is not playing around. By the end of the game, there may be only two players on the field.

They did tone it down a bit (copa standards). Not envy of the referee officiating this game.

Chile con calcio. The game was insanely long.

good game. Hard to lose a final game on penalties especially since ARG played well throuout the tournament. Chile has now won back to back both against ARG.

When is the next Copa, 2017 or 2019?

Next Copa 2019.

What a way to wake up Messi Retiring from Argentina. I am wondering after a few days of reflection if he changes his mind.

Can't tell if this is heat of the moment emotional utterance, or if he's really that much of a diva.

(insert pithy phrase here...)

2019 in Brazil then. I read that they were supposed to host it in 2015 but it was too much (2014 world cup and the Olympics this year), so they switched with Chile that was supposed to host in 2019. I did see somewhere something like 2017 Ecuador which was confusing.
All doom and gloom at the ARG squad. Sure he is a diva, but the pressure on him is enormous, and the constant comparison to Maradona. Ironically, I did sense that ARG finally formed a team that is centered more around him, but I guess nothing will be the same as it is in Barcelona. I was also wondering if he made up his mind to retire and hoped to do it winning or he just ran out of steam emotionally. Rumors are that if he retires other players will too.

edit: nobody to blame for his penalty kick but himself and Chile keeper Bravo was at his best. Tough luck.
