Copa America - Group C - Last Round

Friday, 06 July 07, 04:08 AM

I knew that all the frustration from watching such boring games yesterday would be erased with this decision of the first place in Group C between Argentina e paraguay.

 Both team came to the field with drastic changes in the rosters but with a lot of desire to win the game. It was a pretty even game in the first half. At no moment Paraguay acted as if afraid of the powerful Argentina. And the captain of the guaranis, Cacéres, commanded the destruction of Argentina’s attempts to score. 

The 0 x 0 score in the first half didn’t reflect the very good quality of soccer shown by both teams.  

A very exciting game to watch in the first 45 minutes. And I already feel sorry for Mexico and Peru because playing Argentina or playing Paraguay is not gonna be an easy task.  

In the second half Argentina and Paraguay continued pursuing the first goal.

At the 22nd minute “los hinchas argentinos” went crazy when Messy took Cambiasso’s place.They’ve been calling for Messi’s name for most part of the game. 

And Messy was the man who basically decided the game. Influenced by the crazyness of the fans, the wonder boy creates a great play on the left side and passes the ball to Mascherano at the top of the box.

Mascherano stops, looks, and chooses to place the ball at the right bottom side of Bobadilla’s goal.  Great goal for Argentina.  Final Score: Argentina  1  x  0  Paraguay 

Man of the Match:  the wonder boy Messi for changing the story of game

Mascherano celebrates his goal with Veron and Riquelme 

IN TIME:

I don’t want to spoil my excitement with Paraguay and Argentina soccer so I’m not gonna spend many lines to describe the USA vs. Colombia game: 

*USA -> The team didn’t pass well, didn’t shoot well  (when they do, the ref call it off-side) and so they lost once again. 

*Colombia -> Passed well, controlled the game but missed ssssoooooo many opportunities that in the end I wished USA had tied the game.
