A wonder strike in extra-time from Maxi Rodriguez gave Argentina victory in a pulsating end-to-end encounter.Mexico took a surprise lead after five minutes when Rafael Marquez got on the end of a Mario Mendez free-kick.

Argentina replied five minutes later when a corner was forced home by a combination of Hernan Crespo’s foot and Jared Borgetti’s head.

Rodriguez set up a quarter-final with Germany when he chested Juan Sorin’s pass and stunningly volleyed home.

Most entertaining game of the Cup so far. I had to root for Mexico, if only because of that Commie pinko cheater, Diego Maradona.

Maxi Rodriguez’ goal in OT was fantastic.

Germany v. Argentina should be a good game.

    Commie, pinko cheater? That’s it? What about cocaine user and possible distributor? I believe he cheated on his wife as well, and I’m pretty sure there is some sordid story involving his penis.

    Isn’t Maradonna a chubby little freak now?
