Mistake Referral to top

Nigeria has left the party far more cautious than bold, while his rival only lived Lionel Messi. The meeting has started cold, as infected by the atmosphere in the stands, that was pure ice and that contrasted with a suffocating room temperature.

Whenever Nigerians arrived, threatening right, with Sani Kaito, and each time it tried to strike, Argentina sought to Leo Messi between the lines.

Still missing in argentina a reference top selection, as Sergio Kun Agüero is not a battering ram nato and Messi can not always make the game of his life to bridge the "bottlenecks" which sometimes are generated on your computer.

It was Leo and against all such battle, so uneven, has been on the verge of giving likewise the albiceleste (min. 81), but Nigeria was opposite to his glory minute.

The draw has not come because football is somewhat random and, today, the stars have been with Argentina, which has been taken thus the final revenge of the Atlanta-96. That day there was more spectacle, but the gold in Beijing is the same.
