Angel Di Maria is up and still on the pitch but he is not right. He won't be lasting much longer in this game. There is already a man getting ready to replace him.

Angel Di Maria is up and still on the pitch but he is not right. He won't be lasting much longer in this game. There is already a man getting ready to replace him.

Chile swing a free-kick into the box, which Sergio Romero meets with a meaty punch. Meanwhile, Angel Di Maria is down. Is that a hamstring injury? The Manchester United player sent a concerned look towards his bench. He is nay happy, the lad.
Love love love how Chile play football, like Dortmund not a team full of stars but can overwhelm with high pressure, high tempo, flexible movement and intricate combinations, remember when they blew England away at Wembley?! Valdivia is the lynchpin, why is he not at a top club?

The first yellow card goes to Francisco Silva for pulling the shirt of Angel di Maria.

Eduardo Vargas is behind the Argentina defence with yards to tear into. He gets inside the box but fires his shot over the bar as Nicolas Otamendi slides in.

Messi takes the free-kick, whipping it towards the near post, where it is met by Aguero's head but prevented from reaching the net by a solid diving save from Claudio Bravo. Bravo indeed.

Argentina are settling in to the task now. Pablo Zabaleta is caught and they have a free-kick in a dangerous spot on the right side of the box...
Chile 0-0 Argentina
You don't even need to watch the game to know when Argentina have the ball. Just wait for the whistles. Lionel Messi goes on a trademark weaving run on the edge of the box but it is down a blind alley and he has to go backwards before Chile clear.

The pace of the game is frantic. Neither team is being given a second of time on the ball. Sergio Aguero looks to latch on to a ball into the box but he is muscled out of it before he can strike.

Chile have their tails up. They come forward again and Alexis Sanchez draws a good save from Sergio Romero with a shot on the turn from 12 yards out. Argentina look to break quickly and Di Maria is felled by Charles Aranguiz. Should be a card. It isn't.
Chile 0-0 Argentina
Eduardo Vargas has more goals than anyone else in this tournament so far. His confidence is sky high. But his shot from the edge of the box is low and wide of goal.
Chile 0-0 Argentina
The Chile full-backs are getting very far forward. Former Wigan and Birmingham man Jean Beausejour has possession on the edge of the Argentina box but his low drive lacks precision and is cleared.
Soon after, Pablo Zabaleta comes to Argentina's rescue with a clearance from inside his own box as Jorge Valdivia tries to find Eduardo Vargas.
Open start to the game.
Chile 0-0 Argentina
Lionel Messi's first forward run sends panic coursing through the Chile defence. The Barca man chips a ball forward for Sergio Aguero in the box but it has too much on it and skips away from the City striker.
Chile 0-0 Argentina
Quote MessageAn incredible amount of flag waving going on. Chile's most famous millionaire Leonardo Farkas, who with his blonde perm looks like a 1980s soft rocker, has bought 40,000 Chilean flags - which were handed out free as the fans arrived. Meanwhile Chile's President Bachelet is relying on a good-luck charm. Apparently she has a lucky black suit and earrings.
