Lionel Messi and Argentina take on Croatia for a spot in the final of the World Cup on Tuesday.
Argentina v Croatia for a spot in the final of the World Cup. And that tenuous link brings the Warm-up nicely to the filthiest, most horrendous act of beauty on a football pitch by the aforementioned Juan Roman.

It seems unlikely that Felix would agree to the switch, Box two: he is able - see his Real Madrid side who won La Decima - to design a tactical system to house the most top-heavy of attacking sides in a coherent, functional shape.
