Speaking ahead of the blockbuster clash, the defender stated that he is embracing the team’s position, insisting that Argentina bears the heavy weight of expectations as the title holders.
‘There isn’t pressure on us,’ Guehi said. ‘What’s the pressure? The onus is on them. They’re the world champions.
‘They need to come out, they need to defend their title. There’s no pressure on us at all.
‘It resonates massively with each and every one of us. I think you can see that moments have been hard on the pitch but no one has been flustered by it.
‘Everyone has been super calm, looking at one another and almost (with) one mind. From day one in the first camp, the manager’s message has been brotherhood, being there for each other, supporting each other.

‘And it comes out in the most difficult moments and we’ve seen that across the tournament. We’ve shown good resilience. We’ll just carry on riding this wave and see.’
Argentina have not convinced during their route through the knockout stages either as they aim to become the first national team since rivals Brazil in 1962 to defend the trophy.
