Thursday morning our time. Winner goes to the World Cup. Loser into playoff or possibly outright elimination depending on other results.
 
There will be blood.

Three for me, and two for them.

Would lol so much if Argentina didn't make it. Not that I have anything against them... but everyone loves an underdog story.

Tricky. Argentina were one of my favourite teams last world cup (should never have lost to Germany!). Messi and Tavez were my favs. They may be a great team again this World Cup even though they have struggled in qualifying.... but it'd still be awesome in a way if they don't make it...

I, for one, hope they make it. I know, underdogs are great, and all that, but it wouldn't be the same without the Argies. So come on Javier, Leo, Emiliano and co!

Draw keeps Argentina alive whatever else happens.

Draw could be enough for Uruguay for the playoff spot provided Ecuador don't win against Chile.

Uruguay in better form than Argies, this is definitely worth watching if you can.

if Argentina do fail to qualify (which seems hard to believe, as i type it) the clowns who appointed Maradona will have easily eclipsed the buffoons who appointed McClaren
 
and if they do make it, what will the Argentinian FA do with Maradona??

Cheers. Will either be following it online here at Uni or on my phone at the Zoo (weather depending).

The guy doing the Soccernet text commentary doesn't seem to like the Argies much

Coincidentally, Uruguay play Costa Rica for a World Cup place next month.

Check this out;
 
 
Amazing
 
Same guy scored a 40 yard header in one game, and missed 3 pens in another game... cant beat that...
 
Certainly rivals  brian mckechnie for quirkiness (for those who dont know, he kicked the '78 grand slam winning penalty for the all blacks and also faced the underarm delivery in '81)
 
PS Didnt know where to post this so put it here as hes argentinian
