16 years after this photo was taken, they meet again in a World cup semi final.

Amazing longevity.

Just looked this match up to see the squads. Crespo and Riquelme started for Argentina, and Kovac for Croatia. That's how long ago it was. :LOL:

Like most (apart from @JCRD :cautious:) I am and always have been a massive admirer of Messi, and if he wasn't Argentinian I'd be absolutely desperate for him to win the World Cup now we are out.

But sadly he is Argentinian. So COME ON CROATIA!!

I have no idea which way this will go.

Definitely won't see Romero coming off early this time around though.

I just hope Perisic and Romero don't take each other out and come back home in one piece!

I’d personally love Croatia to win. I haven’t been over impressed with Argentina and although it’s the match up many seem to want Mbappe v Messi, for me I’d rather Croatia make it through.

I do love Croatias midfield - how they play and so synched with one another

Romero has started very well. Made some excellent tackles
Hes lucky hes not a yellow after the first one. Stupidly flying in.

Looks like he'd break Perisic legs if it meant stopping a goal too. Not sure I'm overly enamoured with that

He'd break anyone's legs. He doesn't discriminate.
