Argentina staged another dramatic comeback to knock England out and deservedly romp into a second World Cup final in as many tournaments on Wednesday.
The Three Lions had won all three of their knockout matches by a single goal, while two of Argentina’s three triumphs have come by the same margin. With England needing extra time once and the defending champion twice, both sides enter the semifinal carrying the physical toll of a demanding run—meaning stamina and recovery could play a decisive role.
