But Messi and Dutch soccer player Cody Gakpo will attract the most attention in today’s game. Gakpo won’t remember the rivalry first-hand, but Messi does.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Memphis Depay does as well. He was one of the members of the Netherlands team that was left at the gates of the 2014 World Cup final in Brazil after losing on penalties against Argentina. It’s now time for a rematch between these two almost a decade later.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe Netherlands has played in the World Cup final three times, the last in 2010, but has never won. The same can’t be said for Argentina, which has two World Cup championships, from 1978 and 1986.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n \r\n Messi has achieved a number of records during his soccer career. He is also the Argentine footballer with the most matches in World Cups at 23.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n He needs to beat the Netherlands to be the player with the most caps in the top international event. That record belongs to Germany’s Lothar Matth\u00e4us, who played 25 World Cup matches.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n This match is tough to call, as the Dutch team has been playing surprisingly well. Google thinks it knows the outcome, though, with the Alphabet-owned company giving Argentina a 42% chance of winning.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n The Netherlands has only a 28% chance of pulling off a victory. Google predicts the chances of the game ending in a tie and going into extra time, including a shootout, are 30%.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The quarterfinals of the World Cup begin on Fridaym with a confident Brazil squad ready to take on a determined Croatia.
