Argentina scales through against Nigeria to top group F

Argentina moved to the top place in group F with nine points as they beat Africa champions Nigeria 3-2.
The match was filled with beautiful attacking display as Argentina as usual got the opener through Lionel Messi 3 minutes into the game. But Ahmed Musa of the Super Eagles of Nigeria gave the Argentine defense a quick response with an equalizer in the 4th minute.

Magical Messi wasn't through with scoring as he passed one through Vincent Enyeama with a beautiful free kick. Again Musa responded with an equalizer, but the South American side continued until they sealed their victory through Marcos Rojo.

This result will see both teams go through to the round of 16. Nigeria is the first African side to move to the round of 16 in this year's world cup as they are doing that for the first time since 1998.
