The Selection plays the classification in the last date against Poland. For now, with the 0-0 draw between Saudi Arabia and Mexico, they are passing in second place and face France in the round of 16.
Scaloni’s team was vastly superior to the Poles in the first half and clearly deserved to go ahead on the scoreboard. Szczęsny, a great figure on the Qatari night, saved Messi from a penalty and is being decisive so that the National Team does not qualify in first place in group C.
The stage of the Scaloneta
Argentine triumph
A victory for La Scaloneta would ensure their qualification to the round of 16: they would reach 6 points and have a good chance of finishing in first place in Group C (it depends on Saudi Arabia scoring two fewer goals than Albiceleste).
Draw with Poland
An equality would make Argentina stop depending on itself. Poland would reach 5 points and be classified, while the Albiceleste would reach 4 points with a goal difference of +1. In this scenario, they would rank second if there is a tie between Mexico (-2) and Saudi Arabia (-1). It also serves a triumph of the Tri by a difference of up to two goals. The Mexicans play eighth if they win by 4 goals difference or more, while the Middle Easterners advance with a win (any result).
defeat with Poland
The only result that would leave Argentina without a chance. In this way, Poland would pass in first place and the second will be defined between Mexico and Saudi Arabia.
