Sixteen years after testing positive to Nigeria at the World 94, Maradona returns to finals, this time on the bench, and ends with his moral guilt beating Africans through the lone goal of Heinze. Messi Argentina recovered the best, but ultimately could thrashing when finished asking. Nigeria accused the excess of precipitation. Argentina and Korea lead the group B with 3 points, Greece and Nigeria sag.
He returned the best version of Messi, who claimed that the Argentines. And Maradona a World Cup again. Its natural habitat, where he forged his legend. Napoli triumphed and shone in Barcelona but, of course, became myth albiceleste in defending the world championships. Made contact in Spain 82, with 22 years, and expulsions marked his career with great controversy and goals, as the two who scored against Hungary. But in Mexico was 86 when acted the great Fuzzy: the Hand of God goal and the anthology Maradonian against England, narrated by Victor Hugo Morales. Two divine works that have marked the history of football. Then came the 90 runner-up in Italy after losing in the final against Germany, and the decline in the U.S. accomplished 94, after testing positive for ephedrine to rival today: Nigeria. Sixteen years later, the God of football has dropped to the bench to lead back to Argentina in another World Cup: South Africa 2010, and step off the U.S. tasteless 94.
In South Africa, Argentina comes as covered by the excellence of Spain but with a great offensive squad capable of destroying any team in the world: Messi, Higuain, Aguero, Diego Milito, Tevez, Di Maria and Palermo in the chamber, which is for what which is: unlikely to score goals when the water drowns the team as he scored against Peru, and later allowed the classification of Argentina. The whole offensive potential is based on the innate self-confidence catch the ball. When the ball reached his feet, shaking Nigerians. All except one: Enyeama. The goal of Hapoel took two hands to the usual impossible shots Messi open thread seeking the top right corner of the goalkeeper. How many goals and Flea of the League we have seen in years? But today he managed to overcome the size and agility Enyeama, the best of the Black Eagles, who had studied the movements of 10, but he failed to illustrious Gabriel Argentine gigantic with two World Championships that decorate his resume and want to regain twenty-four years later (Mexico 86).
Argentina put more intensity at the start against Nigeria that we have seen in the other three parties together and played. Messi appeared on the right, but entered through the center. Because in Argentina can not expect a pass made in Xavi, so he has to seek life: cutting the bushes with a machete to visualize and for its originality and preparation. In one of them was about to mark Messi, but as I said before, he met Enyeama. The danger of Nigeria focused on the right flank of the defense of Argentina, occupied by a regular end Jonas Gutierrez. Maradona declined to give depth to the side at the tendency of Messi to beat the center, but drag behind. Jonah Obasi damaged and gave a scare over Argentina, but at the end of the first part could only get a yellow Heinze. The former Real Madrid struck a corner launched by the Bruja Veron, another classic, to put in irons, from the penalty spot and the squadron, the first goal of Maradona. His marker Kaita's eyes followed him. Superb header, Enyeama could do nothing.
From the goal, Argentina dropped the intensity and was carried away by gusts of Messi, trusting their fate to the contras and set pieces designed by Diego Armando Maradona, who surprised the side today, which was then relieved by Burdisso.
Obinna and Aiyegben were hoping for speed Lars Lagerback infinitely superior to that of Demichelis and Samuel, but failed to receive in an advantageous position. Odenwingie surprised by the replacement of which could be the connection and the Martins, a priori the star. Both came in the second. Haruna Etuhu and failed to gain Mascherano, who holds everything, and Veron, 35, was free to direct the step team. It is true, which has the support of Apache Tevez, who sacrifices his offensive contribution to lend a hand in the center. And also there always goes Messi, who fights and press like the best.
Less presence in the game had Di Maria, too static on the left flank where the transition does not reach the ball and somewhat obscured by the great eruption of Leo Messi, sometimes something individualistic, by putting a single but. For example, Barca blew a 4 to 2 against in the 64th minute, Tevez was not very successful in the last pass. Higuain was the reference albiceleste moved up and although good, was unfortunate in the face of door. In March, missed nearly empty and the door 20, a hand hand Enyeama. In the second, lost a fumble in the center that might cost the tie and then went back to crash before the finish in a good hand that reached manufactured.
Argentina both the party slept very intensity away from home, who risked too much the result of a party that had controlled. Odemwingie Taiwo wasted a counter and touched the pole with a destroyer shot that cost him a toe injury and leave the party. Kalu Uche and Yakubu also had their chance, but there was undue haste. It seemed that fate had reserved this victory liberalizing Diego Armando Maradona, who serve their sentence to Nigeria, sixteen years later.
