Serena Rodriguez and Argentina will take the pitch against Costa Rica on Sunday afternoon in the U-20 Women’s World Cup.
Argentina will take on the national team of Costa Rica in the final group game of Group F in the U-20 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Colombia. Argentina is yet to win a game coming away from its first two games with a win and a draw, totaling one point on the table. It also has a negative-four-goal differential. It sits three points behind the Netherlands for a chance at qualification to the knockout stage. Argentina would need a win here and a Netherlands loss with a total goal differential of more than six between the two games to be able to advance. Argentina was blown out in its first game against the group-winner, Korea, 6-2. The team then drew 3-3 against the Netherlands in its second game. Serena Rodriguez has two goals in the draw while Sofia Dominguez has the other. This will be a test for Argentina because it needs more than a win, it needs a blowout win in hopes to advance.

For Costa Rica, there is no chance, this team has already been eliminated from contention in the knockout stage after two opening losses and a goal differential of -11. It was shut out in both its first two games 2-0 against the Netherlands and 9-0 against Korea which is where the majority of the differential came from.
Argentina has the capability of dominating the way Korea did against Costa Rica and will need that type of play here. With all that being said, a win or draw from the Netherlands would automatically eliminate both of these teams from the next round of the tournament.
