Copa America.

Paraguay just completely collapsed after they went a man down and conceded the penalty.

I only saw the first half of the Argentina game, so I missed all 4 goals. Tevez came on and got two assists, so I'm giving him all the credit.

Well one team has the quality :). Alot of other matches were closer in the group stages. Like Ecuador v Chile, or Mexico v Brazil..Boliva v Peru. Its just the knockouts where the matches have been one sided.

Anyway Riquelme totally destroyed Peru..Tevez helped an awful lot also.

Argentina 3 - 0 Mexico.

Mexico did well until the final minute of the first half..they kept, Tevez/Riquelme/Messi quiet. Until the 45 minute.

Brazil v Argentina final. Hopefully Argentina win.

Messi's goal was sweet.
Yea, it was a super goal. Beautiful.

Here are Argentina's goals against Mexico. One of the pundits makes a good comment at the end of it with regards to comparing Messi to Maradona. I hope Messi will become a great player and shine in World Cups.

The pundit makes a good point, Maradona has done it all in the World Cup and other International events, which makes him #1, but give Messi time, he will be able to do the same. Incredible though, he's only 20, imagine what he can produce in the next world cup.

Damn..how did Argentina fuck that up...Tevez/Messi/Riquelme were all marked out the game. Gratz to Brazil, even a weakened squad is still better than most teams in the world.

Argentina are bottlers of the highest order.

Riquelme cant produce in big matches.He is too over rated anyway.Messi did nothing.Tevez likewise.Veron is a crap version of Riquelme now.

Another problem with Argentina is that their team is too small.All their players are pretty small height wise.Even their centre halves are not that tall and were really caught out by Elano's super ball for the first goal. They need a bit of height in their team.

Brazil played well in fairness.The goals were well worked.Daniel Alves was great for them getting an assist and a goal.

Riquelme is no way overrated.

I think the Copa Libatadoras final was a big match. So he has a bad final, so now hecant perform in big matches?

Veron has been poor this whole tounament imo, he gives the ball away needlessy and is extremely lazy in possession and without it.

If anything in that match, Riquelme failed with his freekicks, but that goes with the height issue also, the likes of Alex don't get outjumped ever.
