They will play their first game against a half-decent opponent in QF when they will face Netherlands.
While Spain has played Germany in the group and will be forced to play Brazil for QF
That's a joke

Three days until play worst team in last 16 and then more rest than any other team before QF with 6 day having had easiest game.

Ideal for Argies.

Not very nice to rule out a good usa team. Certainly close to the Netherlands level at this moment. We'll if pulisic is fit anyway

Yeah, they have a relatively easy route to the semi's now.
Credit to them for doing what they had to do.
They looked better since that mexico goal vs Mexico.
If they can grow into the tournament they have a shot.
They atleast will be favoured against whoever they face potentially till the semi's so they should not have an excuse.

Netherlands needs to play with way more energy and creativity. At the moment a US win would not surprise me at all. But im rooting for Oranje to step their game up.

Who are they potentially facing till the semis?

The point is that it's kind of unfair to reach semi having played netherlands and poland,mexico
while Spain would have to play Germany and Brazil to reach there
or England would have to play France
etc

Sorry mate but that's definitely not the point.
Luck (or bad luck) are intrinsic to the very formula of all world cups
