The two sides have met already in the pool stage, with England narrowly coming out on top, even with one man sent off. Argentina has dramatically improved since then but was brought back down to reality in the semis by a crushing defeat to New Zealand. On the other hand, England's semi-final exit against South Africa - the first decent team they've faced in a very favorable World Cup draw - seemed inevitable. Even if a last-gasp gut punch was required to knock them out. This one might be too tough to call tonight, which is great news for the neutral fan wanting to see some urgency added to a game neither team really wants to be in.
