Guardian: Bešić's tireless performance was impressive and mature

Argentina's victory was not convincing, it was more of a cobbled-together performance that raises far more questions than answers, writes theguardian.com, reports Patria.

The disciplined and technically skilled BiH national team had an unfortunate moment in the third minute when Sead Kolašinac's own goal gave Argentina a 1-0 lead.

According to the analysis of the Gauchos' game, coach Alejandro Sabella's concern was evident in the change of squad members who came onto the field in the second half, which seemed confusing.

Lionel Messi's game was not his best performance, and the tireless Muhamed Bešić caused him problems. According to the Guardian, his performance was impressive and mature. The 21-year-old Bešić joined the BiH national team in 2010. Last night, he showed quality play, defense, and distribution of the ball with short passes to Miralem Pjanić, and occasionally long passes to Senad Lulić, reports Patria.

However, in the 65th minute, Messi found space and scored the second goal for the Argentinians. With Vedad Ibišević's entry in the 69th minute, BiH's attack became stronger, and in the 85th minute, Ibišević scored a goal, leaving the final score at 2-1 for the Argentinians, writes Patria.
