Argentina beats Mexico 3-1 at World Cup
None
Carlos Tevez scored two goals and Gonzalo Higuain added another Sunday to give Argentina a 3-1 win over Mexico and a spot in the World Cup quarterfinals. For the second consecutive match, though, there was controversy over a refereeing blunder.
Tevez was clearly offside when he headed in a chipped pass from Lionel Messi in the eighth minute at Soccer City. The referee awarded the goal after a lengthy consultation with his linesman as the pair was surrounded by angry Mexicans and Argentine players. (AP)
