FIFA World Cup 2014

This is the worst game thus far. Argentina are just as clueless as their time wasting opponents.

One thing about this World Cup is that it has shown some very good management /strategies-some completely outclassed sides have put up some very good counter plans........it will obviously never be pretty but it is fascinating to watch!

bang on. Its all about tactics and even the best players in the world get caught out sometimes.

Having said that, if argentine lose to Iran, I will never believe it wasn't a fix!

if it was to be a fix then that header would have gone in and the ref would have given Iran that penalty early in the 2nd half.

One moment of magic from Messi , game over.

It shows how much his influence is -the rest of that side ( other than the keeper perhaps)were no more than league1 class,on tonight's performance.

We needed to see more goals.

Sly, South America only have 6 teams in the finals. Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador and Uruguay.

Mexico,Usa and Costa Rica are from Concacaf, the North American region
