The ‘Albiceleste’ have achieved the bare minimum for a ticket to the World Cup, but their style of play leaves a lot to be desired. With three losses already under their belt, the last two victories over Peru and Uruguay were hard-fought, and the results reflect that with both matches ending 1-0.
Lionel Messi continues to be the leading scorer of the team, but he didn’t make the cut for this particular squad due to injuries. With Lionel sidelined, Argentina managed to secure the top position in South America’s qualifying table.
After nearly two cycles without making much if any headway at all, the Yellow-Greens finally seem to be getting the hang of things. Having previously struggled to maintain a position in the top 6, Brazil is now undefeated in their last five fixtures. However, Brazil also experienced some setbacks during this streak, having drawn 1-1 with both Uruguay and Venezuela, which left them with two points when they could have earned six.
A week ago, Colombia lost to Brazil on their own turf with a scoreline of 2-1. Their defense is still an issue as they have allowed 12 goals in 13 rounds, giving them the rank of three worst teams in that regard and there is still room for improvement across the lines. Although, the trio of Rafinha, Rodrygo, and Vinicius Junior have had high expectations set for them, now they aren’t scoring as much as the team needs which further adds to the teams shortcomings.
