Argentina-Spain Special: Kick, frustrations and fundamental

In former times, but until we experience with our senses that will live on Tuesday at the Monumental in Buenos Aires, we can only take the Vicente Calderon tonight as tangible evidence of a selection, Argentina, frustrated with him dance Spain was in breach, then world champions.

Is unacceptable to ensure that, for there are no parties albicelestes where not to put the leg. They have always played strong, bordering on the regulation but boasting sublime technique and an extraordinary competitiveness. To think that before Euro 2008, Luis Aragones as an example and put them now, Sergio Batista and Esteban Cambiasso turn the tables and talk of Spain as a role model.

However, we are confident that the burden of resentment for not being sports champions since 1986 and have not past the quarterfinals since 1990, will make Argentina, with its impressive public, want to feel the heat from the leg of the Spanish who, on the contrary, they released the pressure and with his mind set on being involved in a party and return home to play the second day league, in most cases.

Recalling the friendly Calderon, gesturing with Maradona but without saying anything, we can ensure that Spain spun that night, a network of the best football possible level. Could thrashing but beat by the minimum with a 2-1 does not reflect the true difference of the two combined, at the time.

In the Monumental, in Sergio Batista to the front, expect to see another type of equipment: it hardened in training too, but with a clearer idea of the whole, with clean lines and a compact front to fear. Lionel Messi will be the champion Trident offensive pending the recovery of Juan Roman Riquelme for the team to rethink in a field where the ball management hierarchy is synonymous with success.

For now, Argentina does not. Therefore, the version that will face Spain will be just an outline. The final product takes some time but will return to its path of victories and Balompedica school. Yes, as long as Sergio Batista allow you to work and not be a mere prophylactic K, as was Maradona, to their shame and more people as well.

If Argentina makes good sense and ordering football home in a few months there will be a great team. The other, the social, we fear that will last a couple of generations back together, if you do.
