Greece 0-2 Argentina
Argentina who were already on top of the group with two wins and a goal difference of +4, decided to rest seven of its starting 11 players from the previous match.
Even with the sitdowns, the likes of lionel Messi, Diego Milito and Aguero up front and Bolatti, Rodriguez and Veron in the midfield, made Argentina the clear favourites to win and top the group with 9 points.
Greece needed a draw at the least to have any hopes of going through to the next round, so they started of with a very defensive line-up playing 3 centre backs and 2 defensive midfielders.
Argentina dominated from the word go and had most of the possession. The Greeks kept absorbing wave after wave of Argentina's attacks. The Greek goalie Tzorvas pulled out some spectacular saves and with almost nine Greek players defending at times, Argentina couldnt find their way through.
Greece also had a few chances on the counter, but Samaras couldnt convert them into goals.
Argentina kept their composure and finally Demichelis broke the deadlock with a close range volley. Messi came close on many occasion but was denied by the post once and the heroic efforts of Tzorvas.
Martin Palermo scored the second Argentine goal and that goal sealed the deal for Argentina.
