Thoughts...England stopped attacking after going up 1-0 and it killed them. They gave Argentina all the possessions at the end and Argentina is just too good to allow them to keep possession in your half.
I said before the game, I thought England would have to be offensively aggressive to have an opportunity. They became complacent after going ahead.

Your comment made me look, and wow, I didn't realize the DH was dropped during COVID, then not put in fully until 2022. I would have guessed 2010...can't believe we still had pitchers batting in 2021.
Pitchers haven't batted in decades. Most of them just took their time in the batters box and and looked embarrassing. Only about 5% could do something useful.
