No convince or force, Argentina has qualified for the Copa America quarterfinals by defeating Jamaica (1-0) in Group B.

Lionel Messi, Angel Di Maria, Gonzalo Higuain, Javier Pastore … So many names that should have guaranteed success to Argentina less narrow than that obtained Saturday night against Jamaica (1-0). Without wanting to disrespect them, the guests of the 2015 edition does not have the level of “Reggae Boys” who qualified for the World Cup 98 and the Albiceleste could easily have complete this campaign beginning in the group with more spirited and rigor to finish.

The key is there, says Gerardo Martino, whose team has however not yet really met expectations after a match against Paraguay hanging (2 -2) and a victory against Uruguay (1-0). Against the Jamaicans, who leave the competition on three short defeats (1-0), there will be needed just an acceleration of Di Maria and a hit-control chain of Higuain to make the decision at the beginning game (11th). Opportunities to take off then did not fail, but for lack of conviction and cold blood, Messi partners have failed against the porter Dwayne Miller and have even managed to make a few scares.

The four Golden Ball he worked in a creative register and has finally scored minds on two attempts class but not framed. More gratifying that selfie directed by Deshorn Brown, the Jamaican striker with FC Barcelona star to the final whistle.

First of Group B, the finalists of the last World Cup clash in quarters Final Venezuela and Ecuador, according to the result of the first cities in their final pool game against Brazil.
