La Scaloneta – The World Cup Journey

Argentina had a heartbreaking end to their World Cup campaign in 2014 when they lost 1-0 against Germany in extra time. An extra-time winner by Germany’s Mario Götze sent the devastated Argentines home after the final.

In 2018, Argentina barely managed to make it out of their group. They ended up losing 4-3 to France in the first knockout round. The Argentine Football Association then took the firm step of parting ways with Argentina’s head coach, Jorge Sampaoli.

The board then brought in Lionel Scaloni–a former Argentina player as the head coach. Scaloni had just a couple of years to prepare for the next World Cup. With an onboarding of promising young talent and eventually finding the team chemistry that seemed to have gotten lost in 2018, the Argentines have managed to make it to the final of this World Cup.

The road has never been easy for ‘La Albiceleste’. Argentina topped their group with 6 points from 3 games. Since then, Argentina has never looked back. They’ve had an impressive run in the knockout stage, beating Australia, Netherlands, and Croatia to reach the FIFA World Cup Final.
