Josh Hart compares Argentina to Knicks after thrilling World Cup comeback over England

You can always count on Josh Hart for an entertaining quip. Just after Argentina’s miraculous comeback to beat England 2-1 in the World Cup semifinals on Wednesday afternoon, the Knicks star compared Argentina to the newest NBA champs, almost certainly because of the country’s propensity for comebacks.“Argentina = Knicks,” Hart posted on X. Despite trailing England 1-0 into the 85th minute, Enzo Fernández tied the game at one with a thrilling goal from outside the 18-yard box.Then, just two minutes into stoppage time, substitute Lautaro Martínez won it for Argentina with a header, prompting Hart’s post. But Wednesday wasn’t even Argentina’s most impressive comeback of the tournament. Argentina was dead in the water in the Round of 16 against Egypt, and trailed 2-0 in the 79th minute. But the two-goal deficit didn’t matter, as Argentina scored three late goals to complete a miraculous comeback and avoid disaster. Lionel Messi, who helped lead Argentina to the 2022 World Cup title, added to his resume with an equalizer in that contest.  Built for match days and everyday wear, this officially licensed USMNT tee brings classic national pride wherever you go.
