Lucas Ocampos scored for Sevilla in their 2-0 win vs. Osasuna.

Ocampos scored his first goal of the season for Sevilla as he and three other Argentine players started the match. It was Marcos Acuña, Gonzalo Montiel, Erik Lamela and Lucas Ocampos all starting and 1-0 for Sevilla when they scored their second.

The Argentine would get on to a loose ball as he would beat the defender and goalkeeper. He would round the goalkeeper and score the open net to give Sevilla the 2-0 lead.

  2. This blog is not located in Argentina. If this was Ole, I wouldn’t be commenting here. I mean, are you going to defend what the local journalist said about the Nigerian NT 2018 WC players? This is not Ole or some other local media website, if it was I would have commented.

    • “The only reason you’re hiding behind the term troll is because I mentioned how the local media was being racist towards the Nigerian NT players, and furthermore, why Argentina doesn’t have black players”
      What did the local journalist say? I wasn’t here to see it. Regardless I do not understand your point about it, that local journalist does not represent all of Argentina and I doubt many people even saw whatever he said. Also your idea that there is something wrong with Argentina for not having black players is crazy, Argentina is demographically speaking made up of people with European descent, native descent, or a mixture of both. It’s no surprise that the squad represents that, in fact Argentina is one of the only top national teams in the world currently to have a team that represents its demography accurately, that’s not an insult to the other nations but that’s how it is. Look at how Italy and Spain have Brazilians in their squads for instance. We don’t have people of other origins or nationalities trying to represent us and because of our economy we do not receive many immigrants from other parts of the world like other countries (like how France’s squad is almost 75% bolstered by immigration or how the half of the Dutch team is of Surinamese descent, or how half of England’s team is made up of Jamaicans or Irish, so on and so forth), and yet we still won the Copa final against a nation with a population nearly 5 times the size of ours! That’s something to be proud of, Argentina does not need to fit a racial quota or be anyone but ourselves.

    • One journalist said something bad about Nigerean players in 2018.
      ok can you tell us what it means? Are you 10 years old?
      in Argentina we are 45 million people. Are you crazy?

      if you want to learn about us then i advice you to open one book to learn about our history.
      if not then just stop the nonsense and speak about football.

      • It’s actually worse than that, back in the day he claimed that Fernando Tissone who is biracial, part black, should have been called to the NT and the fact the he was not just confirmed how racist Argentina really is. Tissone who was a mediocre player at best was nowhere near the NT caliber. It’s supposed to be merit based, not based on racial origin.

        • Right? With all respect to Tissone I don’t think anybody came to a decision to call him up or not because of his race, he simply was not at the level for the nt. In fact, hair length has been much more of a deciding factor for call ups in the past than race!

    • Look this works very simple, Ok are u ready ? Well, here we go ! So everyone on this site has some kind of connection to Arg, right ? Mostly positive i would say in my oppinion, though sometimes members do not agree or they start arguing, but NO ONE IS SAYING OR WRITING THAT HE HARDLY WATCHES ARG ANYMORE ! THAT IS AN STRAIGHT ATTACK FROM U TOWARDS EVERYONE ON THIS SITE, UNDERSTOOD OR NOT !

      NO ONE FROM HERE GOES TO ANOTHER NT TEAM’s FORUM AND STARTS TO TALK NONSENSE OR SOME NEGATIVE STUFF !

      WHY IS THAT SO ? WELL EVEN PEOPLE ON THIS SITE MIGHT ARGUE OR NOT AGREE WITH EVERYONE STILL EVERYONE HAS RESPECT MOSTLY FOR ARG OFFCOURSE AS WE ARE SUPPORTERS OF ARG ! AND ALSO MOST OF US HAVE RESPECT TOWARDS OTHER TEAMS AND IF NOT THEN IT MIGHT BE DISCUSSED ON THIS SITE, BUT NO ONE BOTHERS TO GO TALK TRASH ABOUT OTHER NT ON THEIR FORUM OR SAY SOME NEGATIVE SHIT WHICH IS COMPLETLY NONSENSE !

      Look, some might be addicted to drugs or something else, but they dont talk about it in here as they have respect as for myself i have had addiction for ARG since 1978, so that is why i’m here to see and hear and one day maybe even meet some people in real life to be a friendfulll and respectfull to my beloved ALBICELESTE as it serves me same time as a kind of Remedy from my addiction, though the real hit i get by watching ARG PLAY or watching ARG players playing around the world, look man i nearly got overdosed by ARG winning COPA at MARACANA ! Only my son was there to stop me crying even he was crying from pure joy too as it was his first COPA to see and he will hopefully never have to go through 28 year’s without a trophy like most of us in here ! But, if he has to he will as he s allready dead serious about ARG as i am and 2hen the final started i told him that he can support BRAZIL too as he can support any team he like, but after seeing the usual cheating from BRAZILIAN players he said he don’t like them as they are constantly playing dirty and trying to cheat their way out simple as that ! I told him hat Arg might loose this game as there ain’t many SA American team who have won a competive game on a BRAZILIAN SOIL and then RDP’s marvelous pass happened and DI MARIA FINISHED IT OF VERY WELL INDEED LIKE 1990 against Brazil when DEGO passed the ball to CANNIGIA to score and don’t u Still remember that great feeling from 31 year’s ago and how CANIGGIA CELEBRATED IT ?

      Where is alk your good memories or which one is your favorite ARG memory ?
      Seriously i would like to hear if possible ?

      Please, be kind to answer, Ok…

      And one more thing if u really do not care about ARG why do u bother to post on here?
      As with posting only negative stuff will only disturb others who truly love ARG forever nevermind who will be selected or who will play or who will win and what and so on.,.

      This why i don’t watch news forexample as they are full n3gative stuff since i was born everyday they talk about war or nonsense politics or some other negative stuff as there is never nothing positive at all ! Ok, ARG might not win allways and our favorite players will not play forever, but that is football as the same goes on with life in general etc.,,

      Do u get my point or not ? If not i will spell it for u : PLEASE, AS LONG AS U KEEP YOUR NEGATIVENESS OUT AND TRULY SUPORT ARG U ARE MOST WELCOME !
      BUT, IF U ONLY BRING NEGATIVE VIBES THEN AND NOT SUPORT ARG TULY THEN WHY TO EVEN BOTHER SO THEN PLEASE JUST GO TO AN OTHER FORUM OR CREATE YOUR OWN NEGATIVE WHATEVER FORUM U PLEASE AND STAY THERE WITH YOUR NEGATIVE VIBES ! I DO NOT MEAN ANY BAD TOWARDS U, BUT THERE IS SIMPLY NO LOCIG AT ALL WITH U ONLY POSTING ALKWAYS SOMETHING NEGATIVE ABOUT ARG AND NOT EVEN SUPPORTING ARG TRULY SO IT IS ALK JUST WAIST OF EVERYONE’S TIME INVLUDING YOU TOO ! Then u instead could post about war and all the unjustice going around or something negative about anything etc…SO I HOPE U GET THE POINT AS I DONT WANT OR HAVE TIME TO ARGUE WITH U OR NEITHER I WANT TO SEE YOUR NEGATIVE POSTS AND READ ABOUT YOUR NEGATIVE MIND AS IT MAKE’s ME SUPER DEPRESSED ! I’m here to read about something positive as possible and iknow that everything around arg have not alkways been so positive as there are bad times in life as there are good one’s too as u just have to pick them at the right time etc.
      And offcourse there must be criticism if it is justified and rightfull as if i see someone like PEZELLA playing bad or wondering why Lisandro is not playing with Cuti instead Otamendi, but so far Otamendi been solid with Cuti and as allready mentioned things might change before WC and players get injured all the time so this list of your’s is completly nonsense as there is no locig bringing on such a list now as real list will be released by Scaloni and his crew when the time is right and that’s it so please no more nonsense and negative stuff about ARG, PLEASE !

      AFTER YOUR REPLY EVERYONE WILL KNOW WAY OR ANOTHER THAT YOUR ADDICTION IS NEGATIVE VIBES AS IT IS VERY OBVIOUS INDEED !

  3. Can one of my friends here remind me where are from this kidhood idiot?
    i forget. i am ask to see how much more “racists” we are in Argentina than from his country.
    Man God save you from me if you are from one of the countrys with “clean” history.

  4. Argentina’s starting xi in 2022 world cup.(Average age 29). Great combination of veteran and experienced men not boys. We will have young legs in defense and midfield to help Messi and Dimaria to focus on attack and an energetic young striker to capitalize on the passes of two experienced men .I see a team that can challenge any European team and win the world cup. This team is better than 2014 team.

  5. Cox4; I admire you bro, and I won’t be disrespectful or rude towards you my guy despite what you may think. That’s all I have to say, man. And if I don’t comment here again, at least I got this off my chest. It’s all love on my side of the world though.

  6. well well well ha ha
    look who is back here ha ha
    the top 3 hall of shamer ha ha

    i miss your nonsense man.
    as i see you return strong with a lot them ha ha

    keep up the good work.

  7. Acuna (29) will be 30 by the time for the world cup, Papu (33) will be 34, Pezzella (30) will be 31, Otamendi (33), will be 34, Messi (34) will be 35, Di Maria (33) will be 34, Aguero (33) will be 34, Emiliano Martínez (29) will be 30, Tagliafico (29) sill be 30, Agustín Marchesín (33) will be 34, Franco Armani (35) will be 36. This is going to be a really old Argentina squad competing at the 22′ World Cup. Otamendi in two World Cups (2010 and 2018) haven’t been convincing and I don’t see how he performs better against much younger attacking players at the 2022 World Cup. This is one of the main reasons pundits are dismissing Argentina 2022 chances, and if you take a step back, and put aside your bias, you can see why. Messi hasn’t performed outside of the group stage in his last three World Cup tournaments, does anyone believe Messi is going to light up the World Cup at his age during the knockout stage at the 2022 World Cup? Di Maria and Aquero are great players but given their age and injury history they won’t last four games at the 2022 World Cup let alone seven.

    The 2022 WC group stages will be interesting, Argentina will be a seeded team and is already looking down the barrel of a tough World Cup group stage. There will be 8 seeded teams including the host Qatar. The current top seven teams on the FIFA ranking are; Belgium, Brazil, France, Italy, England, Argentina and Spain. So you’re now left with teams outside the seeding ranking like Portugal, Denmark, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland, Sweden, Croatia, Poland and Ukraine.

    You could have a potential group with Argentina, Germany, Portugal and an Asian/African team, or Argentina, Netherlands, Portugal, and an Asian/African team, or Argentina, Denmark, Poland, and an Asian/African team.. Any of the likes of Switzerland, Sweden, Croatia can be thrown in a possible group with Argentina. The best scenario would be a group that consists of both Croatia (weakened since 2018) and Ukraine ( if they qualify). With all this said, the 2022 World Cup is going to be tough for an aging team like Argentina. Messi is the greatest ever, but at his age (35) competing in a possible group with two of the teams I mentioned above will be difficult and draining even for a player of his quality and aura. Messi needs young players around him in 2022, like a version of his young self (don’t have to be as good), young Di Maria, young Aguero etc.

    Argentina doesn’t have a good history when playing against two European teams at the World Cup during the group stage. 2006 was the only exception for Argentina yet Argentina could only manage a draw with Holland and a blow out win against a weak Montenegro. 2002 Argentina struggled with England and Sweden in the group stage and in 2018 Argentina struggled against Iceland and Croatia. So if you look at the current FIFA ranking, Argentina could likely end up with Germany and Portugal in the same group or Holland and Denmark in the same group..

    One interesting debutant would be Luka Romero, he will be 18 by the time the 2022 World Cup gets on the way.

    • Your analysis is hilarious…..what about the likes of GLC RDP Paredes Palacios Nico G Correas Lautaro and Dybala? Also the reason that they did bad in 2018 is poor coaching and an avg. defense and midfield. Also, Messi did not do great but decent in WC 2014 and 18 KO stage. Also, he did not do great in 2010 KO stage also because bad coaching. And Messi’s okayish or decent performance is always equivalent to the best performance of many star players.2006 Montenegro team was not weak……in fact they had a great defense record in the qualifiers. ADM is still full of fitness despite being 33. Also SA teams are strong and not easy to beat. Your analysis is very poor.

      • Obviously I didn’t mention certain players because they would still be under the age of 30 by the time the 2022 World Cup comes around, but even if you included the other players you’re still going to have an old Argentina roster.

        ”Also the reason that they did bad in 2018 is poor coaching and an avg. defense and midfield. Also, Messi did not do great but decent in WC 2014 and 18 KO stage.”

        Croatia and France were better teams than Argentina, no matter who Sampoali decided to include on the roster. So Lo Celso and Parades were going to make a difference against France and Croatia at the 2018 World Cup? I’m sure these players with their great speed would have kept up with the likes of Mpabbe and Pogba; no, they wouldn’t.

        • What matters is that Messi did not do in KO stage in 2018 and 2010 is horrible coaching and average team. In 2014 he was okayish…… and that was enough to win games against Switzerland and Belgium.

    • Thanks for sharing your observation and thoughts. I think you make a valid point with regard to the team’s age. I think Messi, Martinez (Keeper), Otamendi (back up), (DiMaria (back up and if in form prior to 2022), Papu (back up) should be the overage players in the squad. All other players are under 30 so we are not an old squad but are experienced.

      Players like Lamela, Dybala, Icardi (if in form), Giovani Simeone (if he continues his form) should be included.

      All of those European teams look scary, even Denmark, Sweden. However, we still have a year and things can change.

    • First of all, Papu, Marchesin, and even Kun given his injury record are far from certain to make it to the final WC squad. Emi Martinez will be 30 which is a prime for a GK, not old at all.

      More significantly some of our key players will be in their prime in Qatar – De Paul (28), Lo Celso (26), Paredes (28), Lautaro (25).

      Also, Cuti Romero (24) Nico Gonzalez (24), Angel Correa (27), Dybala (27), Joaquin Correa (28), Palacios (24), Dominguez (24), Licha Martinez (24), Molina (24), Montiel (25), Guido Rodriguez (28), Julian Alvarez (22).

      Overall it’s not an old team.

    • “So if you look at the current FIFA ranking, Argentina could likely end up with Germany and Portugal in the same group or Holland and Denmark in the same group.”

      That’s not how it works. I will give a hint – understand how pots are created.

    • Leave predictions aside. World champions France were mastered by Switzerland and Germany fell short in the previous Euro.
      Keep the facts: Argentina are south American champions beating Brazil in their own backyard.
      Moreover, RDP, GLC, Lautaro, Correas, Nico Gonzalez, Paredes, Palacios, Dybala, Ocampos, Cuti Romero are all very young and regarding Emi, his age for a goalkeeper, certainly cannot be considered old by any means. The players that you mentioned, barring Tagliafico and Acuna, are legends who emerged from the old guard. Therefore, the claim that Argentina is an overaged team, could be considered as absurd to say the least. I think that Argentina has the perfect mix of veterans and young talents and as always, more ralents are going to rise as well.

      Argentina is among the best teams in the world. Yes, we have to stay humble, but i won’t take away the credit we deserve right now by any means. Like it or not, Argentina is the champion of south America by beating in the final Brazil in Brazil.

      You have made it clear that you don’t care about Argentina so let me ask you this: Why do you even bother to come here and speak about Argentina?

    • Kidulthood, with regards with what you wrote here I don’t entirely disagree with you. Yes some of our players will have birthdays and they will be a year older than today, but who said all of these players are going to play for us? Dibu’s age will be perfect for a GK, Armani, Marchesin, and Pezzella probably won’t be called up, and Kun is also a doubt. I agree about Otamendi because even though he has been good for us during the Copa I do not see it as a good idea for him to start, but so? If Scaloni keeps on doing his job well as he has been I wouldn’t be surprised if Lisandro Martinez ends up in his place by then or Senesi possibly in the squad, boom, our backline is 9 years younger. Yes Messi is past his prime and will need rest. Hmm, I wonder what we should do. If only we had a world class number 10 that has also played for a top club in Europe for several years now and could maybe take over for Messi every now and again and play the same role and is a few years younger than him. If only that was an option for the world cup. As a matter of fact I think our overall squad age is perfect if we remove the three players I mentioned and replace them with Senesi and Rulli/Benitez, while moving Ota to the bench for Lisandro. If Messi is given some rest and Dybala plays in his place, and the rest of the squad stays the same, the majority of our squad will be in its prime years and nobody except Messi, Aguero, Di Maria, and Papu will be past 32. I think that under those conditions the overall age of our squad will coincide perfectly for the world cup including those players who will be in their prime, plus the core and chemistry of our squad can still be retained. There is no worry here, it is up to Scaloni

    • This is immature to call Argentina squad old even before the wc squad has announced. Still 1 yr to go for the wc 22 and many things will change there mayb form dip there mayb injuries plus scaloni very quickly changes his preferred players 1 yr before Romero not even used to b in the squad suddenly he becomes a sure starter im sure there will be many surprise selection for the wc squad.

  8. ”How did it make you feel when Argentina won Copa America?”

    Before the Copa America started I said I wanted Messsi to win the trophy. I was also happy for Di Maria because he was my favorite player after Messi.

    The current Argentina NT team is not going to win the World Cup in 2022, making it past the Quarter final will even be a heavy lift (this is not trolling it’s call my opinion).

    • Over 90 % of your contributions are extremely negative and pessimistic. You suddenly showed up with a prediction of Argentina not winning a world cup. Hard not to coming to a conclusion that your have sinister motives.

      Most people here are realistic, we are not favorites to win, nobody is saying that but this Argentina is not going to be easy to beat by anybody, even the best European teams.

      • Enganche what do you mean we are not favorites to win? We very much are favorites to win after everything that has happened……..thats not right man take your words back…..the right thing to say probably would be we are not the only favorite to win.

        This Argentina team is a strong contender for WC 2022 as of now.

  9. ”Kid, it’s not just for one episode, you are one obnoxious character who loves to troll, there have been numerous instances of ridiculous behavior.”

    Obviously you’re the one trolling, look at your comments!

    I have been here since late 2012, one of the most active bloggers on this website, constantly being a presence on this forum leading up to the 2014 World Cup. So the whole trolling thing wasn’t me. The only reason you’re hiding behind the term troll is because I mentioned how the local media was being racist towards the Nigerian NT players, and furthermore, why Argentina doesn’t have black players. It seems like it hit a nerve with you. Anyways, I’m good, I don’t even follow Argentina NT football like I used to..

    So keep your ”Hall of Shame” nonsense to yourself old man, you deserve it more not me.

    • “Anyways, I’m good, I don’t even follow Argentina NT football like I used to”.

      You keep saying that and also that you support Colombia now and yet you keep coming back here to pms.

      Argentina won Copa America and Messi finally lifted a major trophy. Did you celebrate that? I doubt it, because Rojo, Sergio Romero, Biglia, and more importantly your beloved Higuain had nothing to do with it.

  11. Mundo Hall of Shame update:

    1. Romance KING (hiding in shadows)
    2. Kidulthood (periodically active, once in a blue moon, when needs to pms)
    3. Kevin (mourning Foyth’s injury).

  12. Argentina does not have the kind of midfield and attack at the moment to even make it to the semifinals at the 2022 World Cup. In Conmebol, 90% of the current international teams are lacking quality both in defense and offense and yet Argentina is barely winning games. Messi, the world’s greatest player, is past his best. I just don’t see how Messi does better at the 2022 World Cup compared to the previous World Cups he participated in, we’re talking about three world cups.

          • Haha, you’re funny bro. I know it’s uncomfortable but exposing a local Argentina media outlet for using racist derogatory words against the Nigeria national team players at the 2018 World Cup doesn’t make one shameful. The fact is, guys like you defended this behavior with no remorse.

          • Kid, it’s not just for one episode, you are one obnoxious character who loves to troll, there have been numerous instances of ridiculous behavior.

            Also, I would never forget the nonsense about Fernando Tissone not being called up to the NT allegedly because of his race, as if Tissone was ever a NT material.

            You are a race-baiter and a wannabe SJW among other things.

            So go and support your beloved Colombia as you promised.

    • Messi is injured thats all. Yes, he is not a 20 year old player but even at the age of 34 he can wreak havoc if he gains his fitness back. Did you not watch the Uruguay match ? He just needs to take a month break from football to recover.

      Aguero is injured again!

    • Oye cafetero, yet another return of “not so prodigal son”. You came back to pms again?

      In case you failed to notice – Argentina is a Copa America champion!

      Dale campeon!

    • @kidulthood so you’re the infamous one I’ve heard so much about??? lol I made a negative comment about Scaloni once and the past Copa made me eat my words – someone thought I was you.

      Why don’t we wait for the WC draws and table first? Also, let’s see how our players settle in their squads, who get in form, and rising stars that may shoot out of nowhere – remember WC 2022 is in November, so plenty of time.

      btw where have you been? Not sure I’ve seen you celebrate Copa victory.

  15. Spurs lost 0-3 against MU. Both Romero and Lo Celso played bad. Hotspur had 0 shot on goal playing at home. Nuno surely will be sacked soon.

    Lo Celso had some good movements but hardly bring any danger. Cuti was not terrible but lost his concentration totally when the team was down 1-0. It was an abysmal performance by the team.

    This Hotspur team is really bad, especially Kane has been playing like an amateur striker. They don’t have the players to make the attack work. I am looking forward to seeing the Spurs next coach honestly.

    • Actually in my opinion Romero was easily the best player in the Tottenham team. Yeah he lost concentration the second goal but he was a higher attacking threat than Son and Kane combined and provided some great passes from deep, which if he gave to someone in Man City or Liverpool it would certainly lead to an attack with a goal, but in Tottenham everyone is clueless and does nothing. I also don’t think it matters how Lo Celso plays for them because they don’t know how to use him. I know for a fact that if he went to an Inter Milan or Napoli he would completely explode, but he’s in Tottenham who has no idea how to use him and plays horribly and has no ideas or tactics in attack.

      Seeing such a good player as Romero playing for them is just embarrassing to Argentina as a team. Why is a world class defender playing in such a sh*t club? What on Earth did they do to deserve him? Our top players should be in top clubs, not having their confidence ruined by being in an abysmal team and locker room. If he wanted premier league experience he honestly would be at a better club if he went to Aston Villa to play with Dibu or a top club like Liverpool instead. Yes I know Aston Villa are below them on the table but anyone can see they are much better, and if they get a better manager they could be shooting for top 6. Also: did Juventus hit their heads with a pan or something? I know they are also poor right now but Romero could be much more of a difference maker for them and they could easily have him now if they tried, he was on loan from them for two seasons anyway. Would be nice to see Romero play with Dybala or Dibu instead of in this abysmal team. Not to mention that Lamela has become incredible since leaving them and Foyth is better than all of their defenders after Romero easily – no coincidence at all. Mamoun you were completely correct in warning when this transfer happened that it was a horrible idea. I hope Romero, Lo Celso, and Kane leave next summer so the club become relegated and face reality

      • I agree about Cuti, he was good. However, I noticed he focused too much on CR7 (seems like he really wanted that challenge). Notice in the 2nd goal he runs towards Ronaldo then looks back and is like, “oh crap Cavani is behind me”. He quickly turns towards Cavani to mark him, but it was too late when the pass came in. This shows me still that he has awareness and reads the game well. It was a little lack of concentration because of his desire to play against CR7. Cuti will be alright as it’s also not his fault he has to play Dier’s position too lol

      • He is doing great but the club is doing horrible. He could still be in Atalanta playing champions league in a tactically exciting and winning team. Don’t know why he made this decision and hope he leaves along with Lo Celso asap. You can read my post above

    • Because of money and testing himself against the best. Its a fantastic decision he will learn a lot. Tottenham being poor will test him more that will help in wc when coping with the speed of European teams will be very important no league is better than premier League for that now. Other big clubs didnt go for him so he had limited options anyway. He is not World class yet bt has the potential to be one
