This World Cup finally came to life when the Argentineans played an incredible game of almost fantasy football to thrash the Koreans 4-0. This was easily the most exciting match of the tournament and had fans cheering throughout the game.
It started from the very first minute, when Messi showed off his dribbling skills and got Argentina their first corner. The Korean defense came under a barrage of shots throughout the game as their weak defense was unable to stand up to the Argentinean attack.
The first goal for Argentina was bizarre as it came of Park Chu-young and resulted in an own goal. Striker Gonzalo Higuain scored the second goal for Argentina, towards the end of the first half and it looked like the scored would end with Argentina being 2-0. |

The experts predicted that Spain would not only win this game but they would crush the Swiss and no one had any problem believing their predictions as the Spaniards are one of the favourites to win this year’s 2010 World Cup.

Spain started extremely well dominating the first 8 minutes of the match and had complete possession of the ball. One of the commentators remarked sarcastically that if this continues, the Swiss would have to be introduced to the Adidas Jabulani ball at half time. |

The FIFA website had an interesting quote which said that South Africa had the home advantage but Uruguay had the team advantage and that’s exactly how the match turned out with South Africa getting a 3-0 drubbing from Uruguay.
The stadium at Pretoria was packed to capacity and the home crowd clearly got behind their team and supported them almost to the very end. However, it was a rude awakening for the home side as they got a lesson in how international football should be played. |
