How Will Argentina Cope With Qatar 2022 Pressure?
Argentina are always one of the favourites for the World Cup due to their history in the competition and the talent of Lionel Messi in the final third. They were eliminated in the round of 16 in 2018 after losing out to France in a thriller. Germany bested them in the final in 2014 in extra time.
There has been a lot of pain for the Albiceleste and they will be determined to deliver at Qatar World Cup 2022. Lionel Scaloni’s men finished second in their 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification campaign, but their win at Copa America 2021 proves that they are a team that can achieve greatness in Qatar 2022.
Argentina Top Scorers FIFA World Cup 2022 Qualification
| Name | Position | Matches | Goals |
| Lionel Messi | Forward | 15 | 7 |
| Lautaro Martinez | Forward | 14 | 7 |
| Angel Di Maria | Midfielder | 13 | 3 |
| Nicolas Gonzalez | Midfielder | 11 | 3 |
Messi could be playing in his last World Cup and will be determined to go out on the highest of notes. The pressure has been eased after playing his part in Argentina’s Copa America win to earn a first international title. However, he has no doubt been looking at the Qatar 2022 dates for a long time, determined to make his mark at the World Cup. Support will come from Martinez and Di Maria in the final third, while rising talents such as Gonzalez could spring a useful surprise for the Albiceleste.
Scaloni made an impact at his first tournament in charge of Argentina with a triumph at Copa America. The Qatar 2022 World Cup is another level though, and will require a flawless effort from all involved to beat Mexico and progress to the latter stages.
Are Mexico Ready For Change In Fortunes?
Mexico have been the model of consistency at the World Cup. They’ve reached the knockout stage of the competition for the past seven tournaments in a row, but have been eliminated in the round of 16 in each of those ventures. El Tri will be desperately hoping for a change in fortunes at the Qatar World Cup 2022.
Mexico finished second in their FIFA World Cup 2022 qualifiers behind Canada in the CONCACAF region where they have experienced disappointments of late, losing to the United States in the Gold Cup and Nations League finals. Gerardo Martino’s men will have to raise their game against Argentina and the World Cup.
Mexico Top Scorers FIFA World Cup 2022 Qualification
| Name | Position | Matches | Goals |
| Raul Jimenez | Forward | 9 | 3 |
| Henry Martin | Forward | 7 | 2 |
| Alexis Vega | Forward | 9 | 2 |
| Hector Herrera | Midfielder | 11 | 1 |
Mexico’s premier talent outside of Hirving Lozano is ageing, but they will still pack a fair punch at Qatar 2022. On his day, Jimenez is a tough customer in the final third, while Lozano highlighted his talent when he put Germany to the sword in the 2018 World Cup. Whether they have the depth in talent is a cause for concern and could limit their progress.
Martino has great experience and will get the best out of his players, but it will be a tough challenge to emerge from FIFA World Cup 2022 Group C and take a positive result in their clash with Argentina.
