Hail Drogba

Argentina 2 - Crespo (24), Saviola (38)

Ivory Coast 1 - Drogba (80)

He ran himself to the ground. He scored a good goal. And he led upfront by example.

Ivory Coast were down by two goals with only 10 minutes to go. Didier Drogba and his teammates gave a stirring fightback by throwing players forward and scored a vital goal through Drogba. They then pushed Argentinians back as they looked for that equaliser.

Luck was not with them and Argentina held on to win this game 2-1, with goals from Javier Saviola and Hernan Crespo. I was impressed with this Argentina team, especially the way their playmaker Juan Riquelme dictated the game.
