UPDATE: Argentina beats South Korea 4-1 at World Cup

GAME RECAP

With Gonzalo Higuain scoring a hat trick and Lionel Messi in the thick of the action, stylish Argentina is on the brink of advancing in the World Cup.

With their fans outcheering the vuvuzelas at Soccer City, the Albiceleste beat South Korea 4-1 in a Group B match Thursday, giving them six points off two victories. They could clinch a spot in the knockout round, depending on the outcome of the Nigeria-Greece match later Thursday.

In a biting wind, Maradona’s team put on one of the best performances of the tournament, perhaps only challenged by Germany in its 4-0 win over Australia.

The Argentines had 11 shots on goal to just two for South Korea and controlled possession for 57 percent of the match.

The Argentines took the lead in the 17th minute when Park Chu-young deflected in a free kick from Messi. Higuain made it 2-0 in the 33rd after Nicolas Burdisso passed along a cross from Maxi Rodriguez.

In first-half injury time, Lee Chung-yong pounced on a defensive mistake to close the gap, but Higuain’s two second-half goals—in the 76th and 80th minutes—put the game away.

Messi made a great run to set up Higuain’s second goal. He had a shot blocked, got the rebound and hit the post with a second strike. The ball bounced to Higuain, who tapped it in. Four minutes later, Messi played the ball in to substitute striker Sergio Aguero, who crossed for Higuain to complete the rout.
