The former Argentine striker World Champion in 1978, Mario Alberto Kempes, pointed against the Argentine National Team and assured that the team “left a little bit to the rival” in the first day of Group C. It was a match that was complicated because Argentina did not find the space, did not find the moment. He didn’t have a good game. Saudi Arabia played as one expected and well, he won the game, “said the Cordovan in radio statements and criticized: “They did not know how to read the game or rise to the occasion,” in reference to the players who stepped on the field of play this morning. In this sense, he added: “I do not know if it is that the 36 unbeaten matches could influence, but it had never been played against a selection within the 20 qualified. Now Saudi Arabia showed how they have to play Argentina, with a lot of strength, pressure, not letting it play,” and pointed against the referents: “The great figures of Argentina did not appear and that tipped the balance for the side of Saudi Arabia.”
“I think that in the precipitation half of the court was dismantled, a place where you have the most power. But the inaccuracies and the two goals they make in less than ten minutes loosened the plans a little and well, desperation can make you wrong, “he analyzed and continued: “This must be taken very calmly, learn from the mistakes made. Matches are never won before they are played.” Argentina left a little bit to the rival, very cancheritos in some moments, and paid for it, “questioned the author who consecrated Argentina in 1978 and concluded: “Now you have to put on the mameluco de laburo again, forget that they are the figures and those chosen by all as candidates to win the world championship, and start from scratch. They have already realized that by not playing with powerful teams in Europe, because they could not either, these things happen. ”
