Argentina football team is one of the best team in the world. Argentina won two world cup. One in 1978 and the another one in 1986. Now it is 2018. It is been 32 years since Argentina won their world cup. Maradona is one of the legend by whom Argentina got the taste of world cup.

Though he was caught in dope test in a world cup but still his skills is unparallel and his contribution for his National team Argentina and the club he played for is unforgettable.
After Maradona, another legend came in the Argentina squad named "Lionel Messi". Though he is a bit short but his skills cover up all his lackings and made him the best player in the world.

Messi played his first world cup in 2006. Though he could not do that much he does for his club Barcelona but still his performance was up ahead. He was also told that he can not do anything without Iniesta, Xavi as he does not get that much support and assist in the Argentina team that he gets in Barcelona. Still he is the best.
Though Argentina became runner-up in 2014 but still Messi could not get the taste of a world cup. Now this is 2018 and as Argentina got out of the world cup in the round of 16 by France. So the wait is on. Now Messi is 31 years old. In the next world cup he will be 35 years old. He may play the world cup. Still it is uncertain. It depends on his fitness.

Now let us come to the main point. With such a heavy weight player along with Mascherano, Di Maria, Aguero, Higuain why Argentina has got a weakness. The main weakness is its defence and the goalkeeper. Though they have a very powerful strikers but they still lack of defence and goalkeeper. Though there are big names in defence but there is still no co-ordination between players. As Argentina attacks, all the players go in front and the defence gets open and this chance is always taken by the opponent and the opponent scores. Co-ordination between players in the defence and creating gap in the defence is the main reason of Argentina's failure. Though Sergio Romero is a good goalkeeper but they don't have a world class goalkeeper.
If Argentina can cover the gap of defence and co-ordination; it will become tougher then the toughest to beat Argentina.
