Disappointed, sad, with family problems because his wife and children did not go to visit him on father's day, downcast for failing the penalty against Iceland, touched by not passing the draw in the opening game ...

Many things have been written by Leo Messi in this start of the World Cup after Argentina did not pass the draw in its premiere, a result that puts the combined albiceleste in a compromising situation for their classification by these tables to the worst team in the group.

 

Far from living hidden under the pillow, as has been tried to explain, Leo Messi remains calm and optimistic at this stage of the tournament.

As SPORT has learned, Messi counts the hours for the time to start the match against Croatia (This Thursday) because he has been waiting for this World Cup for a long time and, above all, he wants to get rid of the thorn of what happened against Iceland.

 

Messi is aware that after this draw against Iceland, Argentina urgently needs the victory to reorient their position in the qualifying table.

At 30, Messi is going through a mature stage of his career in which he has experienced all kinds of vicissitudes with Argentina, how to reach three finals and lose or qualify in extremis to reach this World Cup. Thus, the Argentine "remains calm and trusting" in achieving the pass to the second phase.

After the match against Iceland he appeared in the mixed zone to give his impressions of the match and now he is already anxious for the match against Croatia to arrive, where he will face his teammate in Barcelona Ivan Rakitic.

It is clear that to pass the round, Argentina must improve significantly their game against Croatia and Jorge Sampaoli, trying to find a change of course, is doing a different training than usual with the idea to change not only players but also tactical drawing.
