USA defeated Argentina 111-104
In this, the closest of all the quarter-final ties, it was Gagamel who proved the matchwinner. Whilst Goldy and Canadian Football both finished on 48, it was Garg’s 63 which proved decisive over Archie’s 56. In matchday 1 it was Argentina who took the narrowest of leads with Archie’s Perreria outscoring Garg’s Patricio by just 1 point. Both teams had 2 Ronaldo’s, there was no other major representation in this one. In matchday it was fairly even again as each side boasted Hummels and Boateng combo, whilst Goldy had a Neuer and Hummels combo to add, alongside Schweinsteiger, whilst Archie could only muster Neuer. Matchday 3 however saw the tie swing decisively in USA’s favour. Though Argentina boasted double Alba, USA also boasted double Alba, with Garg’s having a (c) giving the USA the swing. Though both sides boasted an Iniesta apiece, Goldy’s Busquets pick further boosted USA. The final matchday saw a late, but ultimately futile charge from the Argentine Light Brigade. Going all out with 2 Pirlo’s Buffon, Lescott and Gerrard, Argentina had hoped to mount a comeback. But alas, with Garg owning all of those bar Buffon (and 1 Pirlo obviously) it was not to be, and it is the USA who move on to face Switzerland in the semi-finals
