Argentina looks to secure another World Cup victory and a first during the Messi-era as the South Americans blitzkrieg to an early 2-0 lead from a Messi penalty kick and returning starter Di Maria.
The French offense looks stagnant with Martnez never seriously threatened. Their defense is also suspect with so many missed clearances and intercepted balls. Deschamps needs a serious halftime talk to rouse the defending champs!
The story so far: Di Maria is having a field day on the left side. Something needs to happen if France is to defend the championship!
