GREECE vs. ARGENTINA 1-3 (0-2)
2nd offensive line of the South Americans entered today to show El Pibe d'Oro they are all worth a place in the starting lineup of what many still see as the future world champions. On the other hand Argentina is the only country in Group B that guaranteed its place in the last 16 before the last fixtures. Nigeria vs. South Korea might decide the other team that joins Messi & co. in the next stage, Greece seeming unable to cope with whatever 8 other players play along the trio Kun-Milito-Messi.
The games started as everyone would have guessed, a fast goal by Kun Aguero, and a family reunited by happiness on the sidelines. At the end of the first half it was Argentina and Nigeria to go forward, with the spectacular goals of Obasi and Veron.
South Korea quickly equalised in the start of the 2nd half, after a stunning header from Ji-Sung Park and things started to look complicated for the Africans. Obasi became the new national hero, after bringing Nigeria ahead with 5 minutes to go. Katsouranis's goal was no more than a consolation highlight, score being 0-3 already, Milito doing his job again, as Mourinho taught him to.
MoM's: Obasi (NIG), Veron (ARG)
