What is Wrong with the Argentine Team


What is wrong with the soccer players who may be playing for Argentina in the World Cup? Everyone is injured. The lastest two cases are Lio Messi, who tried to come back too soon from his injury and the worst of all, Pablito Aimar, who has meningitis. However, it looks like he will be okay and there will be no consequences... Poor Aimar. He was labeled the "next" Maradona. Even Maradona used to say that Pablito Aimar, El Pibe, was his favorite player....

But it may be that when the players suffer so much before the World Cup, then they are better motivated. Of course, I don't mean to say that it's great that they are suffering. But who can forget what happened in 2002, when the Argentines went as the favorites and they came back right after the first round. Embarrassing. Historically, when Argentines struggle before, then the team becomes cohesive and they end up doing well. I just hope that this is the case.

But no one can forget that Brazil is alawys the favorite team to win the World Cup. Who can blame them? Their offensive talent is increible! The problem is their defense...Thank God they have a weakness... If you can call it a weakness...Just laughing!
