FIFA World Cup Quarter-Final Preview - Argentina Vs Germany

Argentina and Germany have been arguably the most aggressively exciting teams at this World Cup, making this match at Cape Town on Friday, a mouth watering prospect.

In contrast to their qualifying campaign, Argentina have been on top of their game, whether passing, or retaining the ball or finishing.

After cruising through the group matches with easy wins over Nigeria, South Korea and Greece, Argentina ran into Mexico in the round of 16. Contrary to expectation, Mexico disappointed, and barring the first 10 minutes or so, Argentina ruled, with Tevez's twin strikes deciding the issue. Higuain also got his name on the scorecard thanks to a blunder by Osario.

Messi has been the creative hub, despite not scoring himself, and Tevez and Higuain have benefited. the midfield has been in capanble hands, led by Javier Mascherano, and Angel di Maria and Maxi Rodriguez have supplemented the attack whenever possible.

The back-line led by Martin Demichelis is the only weak area, with a goal gifted to the South Koreans a case in point. Concentration lapses have also occurred too often for comfort, such as towards the end of the Mexico game.

German youth overwhelmed English experience, 4-1, in their round of 16 match, the worst defeat england have suffered in any World Cup finals.

This was a repeat of their group match against Australia, but that was followed by a shock defeat to Serbia. But Germany soon erased the memory with a 1-0 win over Ghana in their last group game to top the group.

Germany have looked complete in every aspect: Per Mertesacker and Arne Friedrich in the back line, Sami Khedira filling in for Michael Ballack, Bastian Schweinsteiger champion in the midfield, Mesut Oezil the brightest spark of the tournament for Germany, Klose a man for big occasions, the list looks non-ending.In fact, Germany's biggest enemy against Argentina could be overconfidence.

Lionel Messi is undoubtedly the key for Argentina. Without his selfless team spirit, apart from his supreme ball skills, Tevez and Higuain wouldn't have been half as effective.

Mesut Oezil was unknown before the World Cup. Here is the star of the future; mature beyond his years, he uses his prodigious talent to devastating effect.

Maradona is unlikely to tinker with his starting eleven. He will rely on Demichelis and Burdisso to counter Klose.

Germany Manager Joachim Leow could also opt for an unchanged side from the one that played against England. Klose, at their spearhead, rely on support from Oezil, Mueller and Podolski. The defence will be led by Lahm who is an additional attacking option, and the back-line will have Freidrich and Mertesacker.

This is a game of classic contrast in that Argentina have individual stars who can rule a game on their day, and Germany have youngsters with talent and energy but lack experience, at these rarefied heights. This lack showed up for the 15 minutes leading up to half-time against Lampard and company in the Ehgland game. For me, the result of this match will revolve around the question: can Germany's inexperience can weather the Messi storm?

The match, however, was marred by a second refereeing blunder in as many games. Tevez was clearly offside when he headed in a pass from Lionel Messi in the eighth minute. The referee awarded the goal after consultation with his linesman as the pair was surrounded by angry Mexican and Argentine players. In the 33rd, Higuain rounded the goalkeeper to make it 2-0 after Ricardo Osorio, under no pressure, played the ball straight into his path. In the 52nd, Tevez sent in an unstoppable shot.

2010 FIFA World Cup: Argentina v Mexico 3-1

In fifty-second match video, we relive the game played between Argentina & Mexico. Argentina disposed of Mexico to seal a quarter-final tie against Germany - but Diego Maradona's side were aided by another terrible decision on a day of controversy at the World Cup. Just as England had been incensed earlier on Sunday when a Frank Lampard shot that clearly crossed the goal-line was not awarded in their match against Germany, so Mexico had the right to feel aggrieved by another example of awful officiating. Javier Aguirre's side probably edged an engrossing opening phase to the contest, but they never recovered after Carlos Tevez headed Argentina in front despite being yards offside when the ball was played to him by Lionel Messi. It was a decision that prompted the Mexican side to surround the linesman in the aftermath of the goal being awarded and led to a melee as the referee tried to leave the field at the break. Mexico's prospects of clawing their way back into the contest faded after Ricardo Osorio gifted possession to Gonzalo Higuain, who slotted home his fourth goal of the competition to give Argentina breathing space by the break. And Tevez's sensational second-half strike ensured that Maradona's team continued their excellent form in South Africa with their fourth straight win of the tournament. They can now focus on gaining a measure of revenge on Germany, who knocked them out of the 2006 World Cup at the quarter-final stage after a penalty shoot-out. But the ...

Maradona to Coach Argentina For 2010

Now, 48 years of age, Maradona is a seasoned man with a look of having been through it all and survived it. Beset by addiction problems, he seems to have fought his demons hard and won over them. He's even cheated death on occasion! As Maradona himself admits, the worst has already happened... His daughter actually pulled him out from the bottom of the sea... His fans and countrymen have every reason to rejoice as he takes the field again to teach the younger lot. After all, who can forget this legend's on pitch skills?

Maradona enjoyed the years when he was playing for Argentine the most, but now duty calls, duty to his country, to his team and to himself. A confident Maradona is sure that Argentina will sail through the 2010 World Cup qualifications. He considers coaching his country a dream come true, though explains that he's only had the boys together for about 40 days since he joined. But Maradona being who he is, he plans to make the most of it. He should have all his players together for 20 days before the World Cup and that's when he plans to lay the foundation and work towards becoming world champions. So, if you're an Argentinean fan, get your world cup soccer jerseys ready for the big event in South Africa!

Coach Maradona's strategy for the team is to vigorously press up front, thereby decreasing the space between attack, midfield and defense. And he's quick to point out that when his team loses the ball, it should be on top of the other team right away without losing precious time. Considering Argentina has an enviable possession rate, it needs to make the most of it.

This soccer uniform number 10 is driven by a dream to win the World Cup once again and to meet Nelson Mandela while in South Africa! He fondly remembers the first time he held the World Cup Trophy... He touched it kissed it and wouldn't let go! That according to Maradona is the 'most beautiful thing'. And that's what he's been telling his players - 30 days of sacrifice to win the World Cup are nothing in a man's life... kissing that trophy is like touching the sky...

Which brings us to something else in Maradona's life that makes him feel like he's touching the sky - his grandson. Yes, this legend is a grandfather! And for him, nothing compares to watching his grandchild... Maybe, it's Maradona's turn to live a calm and smooth life after much struggle and adversity. We are with him... Go Diego!
