The next match in
group B during the
FIFA world cup 2010 in South Africa is the game between
Argentina and
Korea Republic. It starts at 1:30 pm on the 17 of June and it takes place in the soccer city stadium at Johannesburg. Both teams were able to win their first game and the winner of this match is almost in the quarterfinal.
The first game from Argentina was against Nigeria which was won with 1:0. The deciding goal was made by Gabriel Heinze with a beautiful header after 7 minutes. Superstar Linonel Messi and also Gonzalo Higuain got many good chances but they were unable to score. It is not sure which striker is playing from the beginning but I think that it will not be Higuain, perhaps Diego Milito starts with Tevez in the front. If they want to win against Korea Republic the must be more dangerous in the penalty area.
The team from Korea Republic won their first game against Greece without any problems with 2:0. Best player in the national team was Park Ji-Sung who scored the second goal and was responsible for some good chances. It will become much more difficult to confirm against Argentina as in game before but we know that Korea Republic got a very good collective with fast strikers.

The last game between this team was during the world cup in 1986 where the Argentineans won with 2:0. Most of the visitors in the soccer stadium of Johannesburg will support the team from Argentina so it will be very difficult for the players from Korea Republic.
Last game: Argentina 1:0 Republic Korea (WC 86)
Wins Argentina: 1
Wins Republic Korea: 0
Drawn: 0
Argentina is one of the favourites for the world cup and the also got a team with many very good players. The first game showed us that coach Maradona formed a good team but they still got some problems especially in the attack. I think the team from Argentina is able to win this game.
