Argentina vs. Switzerland [SLIDESHOW]: Angel Di Maria Pushes Argentina Into Quarters With Extra Time Goal

Switzerland used bully tactics and rough play to frustrate Argentina, and played neck and neck all the way into extra time, but eventually succumbed to the greatness of Lionel Messi. At the 118' mark Messi's dribbling opened up a scoring opportunity for Angel Di Maria, who took full advantage and pushed one past Swiss goalkeeper Diego Benaglio. Di Maria had been aggressive all match long, firing off a whopping 11 shots. 

Argentina now awaits the winner of the United States vs. Belgium.
