Having won the men's football gold in both Athens and Beijing, Argentina headed into their campaign in Brazil high on confidence. However, they were stunned 2-0 by Portugal in their first match and find themselves on the back foot heading into their follow-up fixture against Algeria on Sunday. Anything other than a victory would surely be considered a disaster for one of the tournament's most talented teams.

Argentina will look to bounce back from a tournament-opening defeat to Portugal against Algeria on Sunday.


The game kicks off at 5 p.m. ET, and you can watch online and on your mobile device on NBC Sports Live Extra or NBCOlympics.com.
The good news for Argentina is that they certainly should have enough to see off an Algeria side that were defeated 3-2 by Honduras in their first match. Algeria coach Pierre-André Schürmann hasn't been able to call on any of the senior national team's big stars, with even his three overaged players drawn from within Algeria's domestic league. It's not a particularly strong team, and they'll do well to avoid a big defeat here.
