In this match Jorge Sampaoli, the coach of Argentina could make some changes in
his team composition. PSG player Giovani Lo Celso could especially have his
chance in the middle. In the Croatian camp, the victorious formation of Nigeria
should be renewed.
Argentina faces Croatia on the second day of Pool D in Nizhny
Vodgorod. After a missed entry (1-1 against Iceland), Lionel Messi's teammates
will be eager to rebuild against the checkerboard selection. After a surprise
draw against Iceland (1-1), Argentina must at last finally launch its World Cup
by defeating Croatia, easy winner of Nigeria (2-0) for its first match in the
competition.
Invisible against the Icelanders and the author of a missed
penalty, Lionel Messi cannot defile a second time finally assuming his status
as technical leader of the national team. If it should be extended to the
incumbent, this may not be the case for all the other players titled against
Iceland.
