Soccer City Stadium, Johannesburg, South Africa

Argentina and Mexico face 2006 rematch

Argentina and Mexico clash at Soccer City on Sunday in a repeat of their second-round tie of four years ago. That game in Leipzig was an end-to-end affair, with the sides only separated by Maxi Rodriguez's superb extra-time strike.

There are comparisons to be drawn between the two fixtures. In Germany, Argentina had strolled through their group to set up the second-round date with Mexico and were considered hot favourites to make the quarter-finals, but Mexico had different ideas and took the game to their South American rivals. Expect a similar approach this time around.

Mexico may have been more impressive in South Africa than they were at the last World Cup, but Argentina, in reaching the knockout stages with a 100% record, remain the pundits' choice to make it through.

However, Argentina have yet to come up against a team capable of getting in behind them to cause real problems. Even so, Diego Maradona's exciting side have still looked suspect at the back against the likes of South Korea and Nigeria. If Mexico can acquit themselves well against a dangerous opponent, it is far from certain that Argentina will be the team lining up against England or Germany.

Maradona made several changes to his side against Greece, including resting hat-trick hero Gonzalo Higuain and Carlos Tevez, but they will return to his first-choice side against the Mexicans. Gabriel Heinze and Jonas Gutierrez should also be back in the fold, though the injured Walter Samuel will still be missing.

Mexico's only change should be to recall the suspended Efrain Juarez in place of Hector Moreno.

Argentina player to watch: Carlos Tevez - The Manchester City striker has been somewhat overshadowed at this World Cup so far by the mesmerising skills of Lionel Messi and the goals of Higuain. That said, Tevez has still been a tricky customer throughout and it could be that placing too much emphasis on marking Messi and Higuain could free up space for Tevez.

Mexico player to watch: Carlos Salcido. PSV Eindhoven defender Salcido has been one of the star performers of this World Cup. His marauding, skilful runs up the left flank from the back have caused problems for opposition defences and there is every chance that Argentina's soft under-belly could come unstuck from one of these bursts.

Key battle: Guillermo Franco v Jonas Gutierrez - As a tricky midfielder playing at right back, Gutierrez has looked an accident waiting to happen for Argentina so far. With Mexico sure to break frequently and with pace, they are likely to target Gutierrez as a weak point. Franco will look to attack this area with support from Salcido.

Trivia: Gabriel Heinze, Javier Mascherano, Maxi Rodriguez and Carlos Tevez all played in the 2006 game against Mexico and Messi was on the bench. Carlos Salcido, Rafael Marquez, Ricardo Osorio, Andres Guardado and Gerardo Torrado all played for Mexico.

Stats: Argentina have had 64 shots so far in this World Cup, the most of any side at the tournament.

Odds: Argentina (1.53), the draw (4.00) and Mexico (7.00) with Bet365. Argentina are 4.33 to repeat the feat of 2006 and win in extra-time.

Prediction: A real test of Argentina's credentials, Mexico's ability to take the chances they will surely create will shape this game. Perhaps Argentina will not yet have come up against a team truly capable of exploiting their weaknesses.

Sunday 27th June 2010

Venue: Soccer City

Kick-off: 19:30

Maradona keeps a level head

Argentina coach Diego Maradona refuses to get carried away with the plaudits his side have been earning at the World Cup, pointing out that not long ago they were also considered by some a "disaster" and "the worst team ever".

Argentina, along with Holland, were one of only two sides to progress through the group stages with a 100% record after defeating Nigeria, South Korea and Greece in Group B.

Their tally of seven goals scored was also equal-best with Portugal, who scored all theirs in one match, while only a couple of teams boast a better defensive record, with Maradona's side only conceding once.

It has been an impressive showing from the South American superpowers and their reward for finishing top of Group B is a last 16 clash with Mexico.

But Maradona was again keen to temper the expectations surrounding his side, even though he did admit they were in "good shape".

"I keep on saying the others are the favourites. We're here to fight," he said. "We're in good shape, although of course there's always a few small things to solve within the squad.

"It's not easy to go from being nobody in your country and then going on to win three matches and stay focused.

"People were saying we were a disaster, we were the worst team they've ever seen, and now they are saying we are an excellent team, that this team is great on the pitch.

"We have the same players as before, so you shouldn't believe what everyone says, just go on working the same way you have been working with the same ideas."

Maradona had come under heavy fire during qualifying, which saw him field more than 70 players, and he took a swipe at his critics after booking their place in the finals.

The former World Cup winner used the press conference in Pretoria to fire another shot at the team's naysayers, although he also said he held no grudges. "I'm grown up, I'm 50 years old in October, I don't hold a grudge.

"But what makes me angry is when the lack of respect towards the players and when people don't know how to apologise for that.

"There are many players who are being considered gods in Argentina and others who have been slaughtered by the press, and we simply want that these same journalists apologise to these players. It's just a matter of being honest."

Looking ahead to the clash with Mexico, Maradona has faith his side can progress through to the quarter-finals but insists they will not be treating Mexico lightly.

"Mexico are a team who you need to respect, and we are going to do that. But they should also respect us and our history," he said.

Argentina, who beat Mexico 2-1 after extra-time at the same stage of the 2006 World Cup before losing to Germany in the quarter-finals, look set to be without centre-back Walter Samuel due to injury.

Mexico coach Javier Aguirre is determined to prove wrong those who predict his side are "dead and gone" even before kick-off.

El Tricolor are outsiders to progress to the quarter-finals against Maradona's star-studded line-up, but Aguirre hopes he can spring a surprise to upset the odds at Soccer City.

"Nobody is betting a bottom dollar on us, the analysts are saying we're dead and gone. We will see," said a defiant Aguirre.

"I think Mexico are nobody's favourites, they don't believe we have a possibility (to win) but we will see after the 90 minutes whether we can change history. Argentina won four years ago and there were no more encounters so we will have to keep our euphoria low and correct the statistics, and see what the betting is (after the match)."

Aguirre was referring to the sides' meeting at the 2006 World Cup in Germany, also in the last 16, which Argentina won 2-1 after extra-time thanks to a stunning volley from midfielder Maxi Rodriguez, now with Liverpool.

Mexico will be boosted by the return to fitness of Arsenal forward Carlos Vela after a hamstring injury kept him out of their final Group A match against Uruguay.

Former Atletico Madrid coach Aguirre added: "I don't think what they have been writing in Mexico lately is justified. It may be logic that because we are playing Argentina everything is going to be wrong, but that is your interpretation."

Mexico have never gone beyond the last 16 at any World Cup played away from Mexican soil, and have gone out of the last four tournaments at this stage.
