Predictions of the formation of England and Argentina in the World Cup semi-finals
According toSports.
Background
تشكيلة إنجلترا تتضمن لاعبين بارزين مثل ديكلان رايس ومورغان روجرز، بينما الأرجنتين تعتمد على نجوم مثل ليونيل ميسي وجوليان ألفاريز. أداء هؤلاء اللاعبين في نصف النهائي سيكون له تأثير كبير على آمالهم في التقدم في كأس العالم 2026.
Why this matters
تعتبر مباراة إنجلترا ضد الأرجنتين في نصف نهائي كأس العالم 2026 حاسمة، حيث يسعى كلا الفريقين للوصول إلى النهائي. الفائز سيواجه إسبانيا، مما يزيد من أهمية هذه المباراة في تحديد بطل البطولة. الأداء في هذه المباراة قد يؤثر أيضًا على موسم اللاعبين مع أنديتهم، خاصة مع اقتراب كأس العالم 2026.
Key Takeaways
- توقعات تشكيل إنجلترا والأرجنتين في نصف نهائي كأس العالم.
- England meet Argentina in the 2026 World Cup semi-final, with both coaches having to make crucial decisions on their starting lineups. The winner will face Spain in the final on Sunday.
- Declan Rice remains central to England's plans.
Thomas Tuchel has almost his full squad, with Declan Rice fully recovered and could start for England after battling illness. England are expected to make at least one change to the line-up, with The Athletic's David Ornstein reporting that Morgan Rogers will start on the right flank, ahead of Noni Madueke and Bukayo Saka. The Aston Villa player has only started once so far in this tournament, during the final group stage match against Panama, but he produced an impressive performance when he came off the bench against Norway in the quarter-finals.
Meanwhile, Tuchel faces another big decision regarding the right-back position: Jarrell Quansah remains punished, and Reece James, known for his recurring injuries, may be retained to play later in the game if he is not able to play the full 90 minutes. This means either Ded Spence or Ezri Konsa will start. If Spence is selected, Tuchel will have to choose between Konsa and John Stones to play alongside Mark Guehi at centre-back. A wrist injury is expected to keep Jordan Henderson out of the game, but he did not rule out an appearance later in the tournament when speaking before the win over Norway and he may be involved with a cast.
As for Argentina, the lineup seems stable, as either Julian Alvarez or Lautaro Martinez will start, both of whom have returned to their scoring form with the Argentina national team, alongside Lionel Messi. It will be the first time Messi has faced England, having missed a friendly in 2005 due to a red card for 'counter-football', with Thomas Tuchel admitting he might use individual marking to face the No.10. "I was thinking about how to deal with Messi," Tuchel said in a pre-match press conference. "If we did traditional individual marking, I'm not sure if we would implement that idea, but it came to my mind. Everyone knows the space he wants to appear in. Everyone knows he sees things before others."
Thiago Almada and Nico Gonzalez provide attacking options in midfield, but Leandro Paredes could provide more defensive cover and is considered favorite to start in Lionel Scaloni's other crucial decision.
England line-up prediction: Pickford; Konsa, Stones, Guehi, O'Reilly; Rice, Anderson; Rogers, Billingham, Gordon; Ken.
Argentina lineup prediction: Emiliano Martinez; Mola, Romero, Martinez, Tagliafico; Paredes; De Paul, Fernandes, McAllister; Messi, Alvarez.
