Based on the complex network theory, this paper focuses on the passing network of Argentina and France, measures the robustness of the network from multiple static indicators, and analyzes the changes of multiple indicators of the network through the attack on the network. The analysis shows that the Argentina team has more advantages in the effective scale and connectivity of the network, and the French team has stronger network robustness. Both networks are more robust under random attack and less robust under target attack.
