World Cup 2014 match preview: Argentina vs Iran

Group F: Argentina vs. Iran
Time:   12 p.m. ET, Saturday, June 21
   
Argentina can control Group F if they beat Iran, then they will be up against the runner-up of Group E. Argentina's greatest advantage is Lionel Messi, he is in his best everytime he steps on the pitch.

Argentina has a lot of gunners besides Messi, so Iran should control them if they want to win the game.
