France looked weak and without initiative today, if they play like that, they'll be eaten alive by the other greats. Argentina had no teeth in attack, which is where all their strength should be. Against any savvy attacking side, they'd be massacred in the current form, with only a half-decent goalkeeper and a group of aging and/or slow defenders. Mascherano looks like a tractor when he runs. This does not bode well. Why on earth did they keep Dybala benched and send in Higuain only in the last 8-10 minutes of the game? Ridiculous. Iceland were very impressive, especially in defense, but they're also lethal on counter attacks. Will be fun to watch them in the coming weeks!
