Yugoslavian style? Of course not.
It has to be Zlatan-style.

I hate how loving around with (usually fake) injuries and subbing during stoppage time is so effective. Refs never add enough extra time on top for delays during stoppage. A good 1.5 to 2 minutes wasted during stoppage time in this game, but the ref only adds 30 seconds on top of the original 4 minutes. Same happened in the England game.

Nah they do add it on especially in big tournaments and no body really cares because if you didnt win it in 90+ minutes then thats fair. Rarely is anyone that upset that they lost a minute.

Not like Iran was going to get the ball back since Argentina no longer had to attack, but still.

Iran wouldve needed more than that I think.

Now local commentators bullshit that Argentina had the positive approach and Iran was doomed to fail for being so defensive. No, Argentina was really crap and should have done much better. Iran did really well for a minor team in a terrible group.

as an argentinian who wanted my team to win this is absolutely true.

what i mean is that this game was one of the best of those kinds of games. amazing defence + an incredible goal late on to break it. but sometimes you get the goal on like 55 minutes and the rest of the half is just the better side passing it around until full time.

IMO football is a game where you want to take your chances if the goal is to win. Kop hero Lionel Messi knew this, Iran didn't tbf.

you can have as quiet a game as you want as long as you score the winning goal in the 91st minute imo

That's fine; "give the ball to Messi and hope he does something magical" doesn't require a competent manager though.

Uh what, I can't tell if this is ironic or not.

1) this is the biggest tournament, and they didn't do it
2) why even have stoppage time then if "thats fair"

edit:
3) I'm only somewhat sure that every team that's down by 1 or tied and needs to win would love an extra minute

There is a difference between playing well and winning that's why some of the top top teams are disliked because they aren't that fun to watch.
