Mexico might still have a say in the matter of this Copa, but I really can't see past an Argentina v Brasil final...Argentina to win...unless something totally ridiculous happens...

Entertaining 1'st half as I knew it would be. A number of missed opportunities by both sides: Zanetti, 12mins, after good work puts in a weak shot. 1 min later Mexico waste a free kick in a good position, & waste a 2'nd F/K 28 mins. Tevez has 3 misses, 2, 20 & 41 mins. At 35 mins, miss of the 1'st half by Guardado of Mexico, then 44 mins, Riquelme puts a lovely free kick into the Mexican penalty area... Heinze gets a foot to the ball & scores.
The pace of the match predictably died down after Argentina's 3'rd goal in the 65'th min. The notable points: Arce misses for Mexico with a free kick, 47 mins. 50 mins, Leo Messi correctly booked for "simulation," diving trying to get a penalty. Nery Castillo so unlucky for Mexico, 54 mins, hits crossbar. 61 mins Leo Messi with "un gol magnifico," what we Italians call "il cucchiaio," the spoon, a beautiful lob over Sanchez in the Mexican goal. 64 mins, Marquez takes Tevez down at the very edge of the Mexican penalty area, & Riquelme scores with a cheeky "Francesco Totti" penalty. 79 mins a shocking miss by Argentina's Palacio(not sure about the spelling) should have been Argentina's 4'th goal. Unless you wanted a Mexican victory, it was an entertaining game. So, as most of us knew it would be, a Brasil v Argentina final!
It was a good game between Argentina and Mexico the final score-line of 3 nil to Argentina might not actually tell the whole story of the game as Mexico were creating good chances as well but did not make use of them and Argentina had the extra bit of quality , hope Argentina wins this cup as they are best team playing the best soccer in this tournament.Mexico has had a excellent tournament as well this bodes well for their future, btw why is Ochoa not playing he should be mexico's number one goal keeper.
