Argentina overload both central and wide areas to create problems around the opposition’s defensive shape. Tobin Heath highlights how much attention Lionel Messi attracts. When five defenders are focused on him, space must open for someone else. That is where Argentina’s other attacking threats can make the difference in the FIFA World Cup 2026™ final. Tobin Heath won the FIFA Women’s World Cup with the USA in 2015 and 2019. She also won Olympic gold at Beijing 2008 and London 2012.
