round of 16 part seven

this turned out to be a tense finish. the first half was tight. the second half argentina carried the play yet the 90 minutes stayed scoreless. then came extra time. there were chances galore. argentina finally opened the scorin in the 117th minute. switzerland came within a goalpost and a rebound fron evening it in the last minute. the ball hit the post, bounced out and hit the shooter and just went wide of the net. wooow. anyways, argentina wins 1-0 and moves on to the quarter finals against belgium or the united states. that game is at 2pm edmonton time.
