2010 FIFA World Cup Greece( 0) Argentina(2).HIGHLIGHTS MEXICO NEXT!! Argentina booked a last-16 date with Mexico as their two Martins — Demichelis and Palermo — ended Greece’s faint hopes of qualification by wrapping up a 2-0 victory in Polokwane. Greece had kept the South Americans at bay until the 77th minute but they could do little to prevent Diego Maradona’s side from securing top spot in Group B with an impressive win at the Peter Mokoba stadium. Otto Rehhagel’s side simply needed to better the result of Korea Republic to claim a place in the last 16, and with Maradona rotating his starting 11, as expected, with no fewer than seven changes from the side that swept aside Korea Republic, the Greeks could must have felt more confident of achieving their aim. However, there was no doubting Greece had a Herculean task on their hands, and they were virtual by-standers in the opening minutes as Argentina stroked the ball around confidently, guided by the returning Juan Veron. Lionel Messi, lively from the start, demonstrated his threat as early as the tenth minute, riding the challenges of Konstantinos Kastouranis and Alexandros Tziolis, before eventually being stopped in his tracks by the outstretched leg of Sokratis Papastathoppoulos. Greece were defending in numbers in a bid to thwart their opponents, and were relying on long balls into Georgios Samaras in any bid to switch defence into attack. However, if Rehhagel’s side were slowly finding their feet — only the outstretched leg of Martin Demechelis brought an end to. From: trxstudio Views: 2 0 ratings Time: 02:27 More in Sports
