CompuEsther: Man! You're a true NLer. See how you're following me bumper to fender!

CompuEsther: Just to correct an impression. I'm not wishing that the strike continues. After all, what do I stand to gain if it does. I'm also praying perhaps more than you are doing, that the strike ends soonest. But, we all know our country. While you pray, you should also be realistic or you might be risking HBP. Moreover, my suggestions above don't have to be relevant only during strikes. Thank you.

Gat you

SMH

So nobody would like to watch the game, right??

Austeenx: And they couldn't win Israel?

To you Israel might be a very small team, but to the Portugese Israel is a problem

Sweden progressed from the group phase as one of best third-placed teams, finishing behind Nigeria and Mexico, the two finalists at UAE 2013.

Their two subsequent triumphs in the knockout stage – versus Japan in the Round of 16 and Honduras in the quarter-finals – saw Roland Larsson’s men arguably accomplish the most significant feat for Swedish football since the senior side claimed third spot at the 1994 FIFA World Cup™ in USA.

In order to achieve a similar ranking and pick up a fourth win in a row, Sweden’s coaching staff will likely place their trust in the players who have most contributed to their fine results thus far: forwards Valmir Berishaand Gustav Engvall, as well as the midfield triumvirate of Elias Andersson, Erdal Rakipand Anton Saletros.

As for Argentina, their loss to Mexico was unexpected given their excellent performances in the competition up to that point. By recording four consecutive victories after their opening draw with Iran, the South Americans were, prior to their semi-final, just one of two unbeaten teams (alongside Nigeria) left in the competition.

Taking into account the discouraging nature of the reverse, coach Humberto Grondona will have his work cut out for him when motivating his players, but will doubtless stress that the previous result was nothing more than the proverbial bad day at the office.

The absentees

Two Argentinian players are sure to miss the match with Sweden: captain and goalkeeper Augusto Batallaand defender Joaquin Ibanez, who were both sent off during the semi-final versus Mexico.

Player to watch

Elias Andersson( Sweden)
The Helsingborg midfielder is regarded as one of the most effective and influential performers in the Swedish XI. The only player to have played every minute of Sweden’s six matches at UAE 2013, the skipper got off to a remarkable start by setting up three goals in his country’s 4-1 opening-day victory over Iraq.

The number

5– Friday’s duel will be the fifth time (in 12 appearances) that Argentinahave taken part in the play-off for third place, which constitutes a new record at the U-17 event. The South Americans have emerged victorious from the bronze medal match on three occasions (the last of which came ten years ago in Finland), and have lost just once, going down 2-0 to Burkina Faso at Trinidad and Tobago 2001.

The words

“Now the world knows that the next generation of Swedish players is capable of great things, and we’re determined to end our time here with a medal,” Sweden forward Valmir Berisha.

“The defeat by Mexico has not dented our motivation. We’re intent on finishing third and we’ll approach this match with the same attitude as usual. I’m very confident that we can obtain a positive result on Friday,” Argentina coach Humberto Grondona.

RIP to the dead

homesteady: Who's scared of portugal?? they are just like every other team!

We are know they are just like other teams, but if Nigeria plays with them, we'll struggle for a draw which would be very hard for us

Austeenx: Are you crazy?
Portugal plays nothing.
It's just a team filled with big names and finding it difficult to jell.

We all know that Portugal plays nothing, but when thay play Nigeria, I bet you we'll struggle for Draw

homesteady: You just want big names in the world cup! Because there is nothing competitive in portugal! they could not even win israel! common israel ! [s]then just imagine what will happen when they meet Nigeria[/s]

To you Israel is common, each club/team has its own weaking point, so Israel might be one of Portugals weaking point. Don't even pray for us to be in the same group with Portugal come 2014, they might deal with us mercilessly

Fellow Chelsea Fans, where are you na??
