They're really hard to break down. Argentina tried and didn't do too badly (unlike, say, France earlier). The penalty that Messi missed should not have been awarded, while they had a much stronger case later which wasn't awarded so that evens out.

The Icelandic keeper had a very good game too.

Good game in a wide open group.
