Fifa World Cup 2014 round of 16 game between Argentina vs Switzerland at Arena Corinthians, São Paulo

Ezequiel Lavezzi of Argentina is challenged by Xherdan Shaqiri.

Ricardo Rodriguez uses his long legs to thwart little Lionel Messi.

Some balloons in the colours of Argentina lay on the pitch as a free-kick is whipped in.

Josip Drmic bears down on the dithering Sergio Romero before unleashing his underwhelming shot.

The Swiss tactic of crowding out Lionel Messi is working well.

A free-kick which came to nothing.

Messi, like most of the watching public, doesn’t seem to be enjoying the match so far.

Diego Benaglio leaps like a salmon.

Diego Benaglio gets down quickly to save well from Messi, but Rodrigo Palacio, centre, is ready to pounch on the rebound.

Palacio pounces and Benaglio bravely dives at his feet. That’s gotta hurt.

It does.

Come on Shaqiri you can do better than that.

Now it’s Rodrigo Palacio’s turn to be crowded out by the Swiss defence.

Angel Di Maria knows he should have done a lot better.

Gooooaaaalllll

Joy.

Pain.

Relief

Joy and relief in the stands.

Blerim Dzemaili can’t believe the ball didn’t end up in the net.

Nor can his team-mates.
