Argentina won't peak too soon in this tournament, that's for sure. Other than the genius of Messi, the best player in the world, not a very impressive display at all. When you have to depend on an own goal to make the difference, you shouldn't have a lot to write home about.
Kudos to Bosnia. They had a plan for this game and executed well enough to nearly pulling it off statistically. They outshot the Stripes & Dives 11 to 5 and led in corner kicks 6 to 2. Both Nigeria and Iran should be encouraged by this, keeping in mind that Bosnia are an excellent side and what they can do, both Iran and Nigeria will have a harder time doing.
