This world cup is brilliant. This match has been awful and still had me on the edge of my seat at the end.

The Argies know how to play nasty, we have a lot to learn without a doubt.

England will find Switzerland hard to get past in the euro qualifiers

Even the crap matches deliver in the end. Hard luck to Switzerland, it almost worked. Every time Messi got on the ball, it looked like someone threw a cluster bomb of naturalized Swiss immigrants at him but I suppose he was always going to find the room once fatigue set in.

I am glad the Argies won this one purely because of the way the Swiss (if you can call them that!) played in the first 90 minutes. Defending at times with the whole team in the penalty area. Would not have liked another match with Swiss playing so deep and obviously just trying to get to extra time and penalties. If the Swiss had played the whole game the way they played the last few minutes it is quite likely they could have come out winners.

Without the migrants Switzerland would not have a football team, what a joke.

True. Blatter was saying the other day that teams who set up just to defend deserve to go out.

Will he say the same now? the complete (totally atrocious language removed).
