Final Score: Argentina 1 Australia 0. Nice goal by Lavezzi, after a nifty combination between Riquelme and Messi ended with Di Maria putting a brilliant ball for Pocho to one-time it to where the goalie had no chance.

Argentina missed lots of chances, but credit has to be given to Australia for their tactical discipline that kept them in the match.

Ustari 6: Didn't have much to do.

Zabaleta 7: Great effort, joining the attack effectively and solid defensively, although he wasn't pressured.

Garay 5: Not a lot of work, but like the rest of the defense he didn't transmit security.

Fazio 5: A step down from Pareja's play in the previous game. Like Garay, he didn't fully convince against a team that didn't pressure much.

Monzon 5: Was ok joining the attack, but defensively he still had problems, in spite of the weaker opposition.

Gago 6: Very active defensively, but still sloppy with the ball.

Mascherano 7: Another solid defensive effort, and he also joined the attack well and had a nice shot on goal.

Riquelme 6: He showed himself and made some good passes, he created some danger, but i thought he often positioned himself too far from their penalty area. And, he missed some opportunities that a player of his caliber should make.

Messi 7: The most dangerous player in the game, but not a great match by his high standard. He was less active than in the first match, and he missed some chances that he usually makes.

Lavezzi 7: He fought and worked hard and he got a well deserved goal with a nice finish.

Aguero 5: He started well, but then dissapeared.

Di Maria 8: He came in and provided a spark when the team needed it. Put a great ball to Lavezzi for the win, and another one that Riquelme should have finished.

Overall it was a well deserved win but a rather disappointing effort against a rival that was disciplined in defense and tried to make it difficult to play.

For me DiMaria is a contstant revelation, this kid will go places, he reminds a heck of a lot of Killy. Lavezzi I think has worked hard and played well both matches thus far, but where the heck is Kun?? Very dissapointing to see him struggling this early on. Gago to me is really not with it yet and this is a concern since we pull up so often, we will get caught on a counter through the middle. Monzon!! What the heck guy wake up this is your tourney to impress. I thought Fazio actually was not too bad his height did come into play a few times and his timing was good. Zabaletta well what did I say, he will replace Zanetti nicely. Messi to me needed to loosen up more he looked hesitant and a few times he should have just ran into the box and not looked for the pass.Roman was OK , but we know this from him allready, one great game , then one so-so. I think against Serbia we should give Messi a break and Roman, start Bounanotte, Di maria should get a start too and Banega some time as well. Overall I think things are going well but we must learn to be carefull not give the ball away in the center of the pitch and be carefull of the quick counters, and most importantly learn to shoot and not be so darn hesitant,,, and finish please!!!
