Argentina vs. Mexico: Match preview

The Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup started with a shocking upset when Saudi Arabia beat Argentina on Matchday 1, so their battle with Mexico today at Lusail Iconic Stadium on Matchday 2 could be definitive. Poland defeated Saudi Arabia 2-0 earlier today, so Lionel Messi and the Albiceleste must win against El Tri to stay in contention to qualify for the round of 16. Read along to find out how to watch it on TV or live stream in your country. If you are in the US, it will be available on FuboTV (free trial) and Peacock (Limited-time offer for 0.99/m).

Argentina arrived at the tournament as one of the top favorites to take the crown, but that quickly turned into a nightmare because of their poor beginning. What was supposed to be an easy match vs Saudi Arabia became a 2-1 loss that complicated everything. They must play their best game given a loss will eliminate them.

Mexico had what seemed as their most important clash in their opener. Poland was their rival, and they got a 0-0 tie. Even though they couldn’t get a victory, a draw wasn’t bad taking into account that Guillermo Ochoa saved a penalty kick from Robert Lewandowski. If they get a triumph here, they will be in a great to position to go the round of 16.
