Argentina
undefeated finally agreed to the second round by overcoming two goals from zero to a Greece that became difficult the road to albiceleste due to a Greek wall contain offensive learned Latin and a goalkeeper who stopped Tzorvas seven potential goals, including two of the star Lionel Messi, who still meet the goal in the world.
Group B, the Argentines had classified in any scenario, their goal was an incentive for only would wait for his companion who was in Korea and Greece for several minutes.
So much so that the Greeks in the first half only had three shots on goal against seven of Argentina. But led by Otto Rehhlagel were protecting their home court warriors planted as a pending attack and take advantage of an oversight to fight back, but nobody blames Greece faced Argentina, was not the same as it was against Nigeria and South Korea .
Selecting Diego Maradona was no way before the Greeks were planted and neutralized Lionel Messi in their attacks, it was not until the 77th minute when Martin Demichelis remato to door on a corner kick, minutes after Martin Palermo, who made his debut in a World Cup at 36 would get the second goal when goalkeeper Tzorvas of Greece turned violent Messi shot. Maradona
rested seven different except for Messi, whom Maradona named captain and to seek the goal that had not arrived. The presence of Nicholas Ottamendi, Clemente Rodriguez, Nicolas Burdisso, Mario Bolatti, Sergio Aguero and Diego Milito, Maradona gave the satisfaction of knowing you have people in reserve ready to play if the owners do not respond and it was an Argentina that saw Clemente Rodriguez and Mario Bolatti shine around corners and make him understand Maradona who are ready to play.
Although his classification was a fact, the tie was not for the former captain of the victory had to be strong and that's when Palermo on his first touch of the ball gets the goal of tranquility and It puts the nine points in the second round of albiceleste to face Mexico and relive that rematch in 2006, when the Aztecs fell in overtime with a goal by Maxi Rodriguez in the absence of a few minutes to go to penalties. The Greeks on the other hand showed a restraint and soccer balls for Georgios Samaras longer than its height and speed to win a Demichelis spaces that could never contain it. Knowing that the tie did not rank them, Rehhagel played very conservative leveraging these long balls to create danger, but never showed a Greece attacker, played a draw in Nigeria and Korea until he learned that Koreans were up on the scoreboard, but albiceleste damage was done.
In the other game South Korea and Nigeria equaled two goals in a match that gave the Koreans their bye to face eighth and Uruguay.
Koreans showed that they are for many positive things in this world and its classification something that has not happened since they organized the event in 2002. This time they have shown progress and look forward to similar action which had eight years ago.
now be in the hands of the Asians, the first selection of Oceania classified demonstrate the high level they have, Uruguay proved to be suitable for many things, but the tide as evidenced Asian, had only one match harmful to Argentina, but that does not diminish hopes to move forward and prove they can be the surprise in the world. Nigeria
trying not to become the second African team to say goodbye to the world, I try unsuccessfully to get the winning goal but were unable to exploit the opportunities they had to bulk up the score even more and this victory leaves the Eagles not only African eliminated, but Lars Lagerback to step out as a technical trainer unable to classify a selections from which much was expected at this meeting in Africa.
In vain did the goalkeeper Enyeama quick fame, to Argentina where a single error in that defeat was that comment should never happen as a coach turn, Lagerback who came from Sweden who got into the next phase in two previous world, insurance is dismissed by the back door, knowing he could have gone further.
six defeats and two draws in their last eight commitments is Nigeria, to find their last win in a World Cup we have to go back to June 19, 1998 when they beat Bulgaria.
