Gonzalo Higuain & Company made light work of South Korea and pretty much sealed Argentina's spot in the last 16. Higuain had his first World Cup hat trick and the first of this summers tournament. South Korea was really no match for the pass and move play of Argentina. Messi was a huge contributor to the success of Higuain today and because of Maradona's food request at their hotel, the goal scorer will probably make Lionel a nice ice cream sunday...or four.
Today's action is lining up to be, in my opinion, some of the best action for a single day at the World Cup. Greece and Nigeria haven't been the prettiest thing to watch but the amount of chances, by far the best miss so far, and Nigeria playing with 10 men for over half the game, it has been very entertaining. Congrats to Greece as well with their first ever win at a World Cup finals with a 2-1 scoreline. Here's hoping that Mexico v France will end the day with an exclamation point.

We all know that yesterdays Spain v Switzerland match was the shocker of the tournament so far. I still can't believe Spain didn't equalize or more and neither can Iker Casillas's main squeeze, reporter Sara Carbonero. After the game she came up to him on live T.V. and blasted him with this.
"How did you muck that up?"Iker didn't even make eye contact and gave this answer.
He then proceeded to walk away. Dude, Iker, you just lost 1-0 to Switzerland, a team people all over the world thought you would carve up, and to top it off, your lady hits you with that zinger. Keep your head up buddy, just remember, your Iker-freaking-Casillas.
"I don't know what to say. I don't know if this defeat will have consequences. The dressing room is fed-up."
Here is the whole interview, it is longer than I read and I can't understand any of it, but I'm guessing the last question is the crucial one.
