After getting off to the worst possible start, there is no more margin for error for pre-tournament favorites Argentina. Falling to a monumental defeat – one of the most shocking in World Cup history, no less – in what should have been their easiest game by far has left them bottom of Group C, and Mexico have the chance to shatter what is again of Lionel Messi’s ultimate dream. Here’s how to watch a live stream of Argentina vs Mexico in the group stage of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Mexico’s Argentina head coach Gerardo Martino shares a famously close relationship with Messi, but Tata must put that aside to give El Tri the best possible chance of progressing to the knockouts. They were held to a goalless draw by Poland in the opener, but only one team turned up to play football and that was Mexico.
After witnessing Argentina’s lackluster performance against Saudi Arabia, they may smell blood in the water and be tempted to go all-out for the kill. For all their attacking riches, La Albiceleste created precious little in the opener and the Mexico backline will not simply bow at Messi’s feet.
But even if they didn’t show it on Tuesday, it’s worth remembering why Argentina were tipped for glory just days ago. Messi may not be the game-changer he once was, but the team as a whole is more balanced than it has been in years, as demonstrated by the 36-match unbeaten run on which they entered the tournament. It’s crunch time.
