Argentina Take Early 1-0 Lead over Belgium

Gonzalo Higuaín drilled a rotating volley off a deflection past Thibaut Courtois in the 10th minute to put Argentina up 1-0 on Belgium. Ángel di María was actually trying to slide a pass to Pablo Zabaleta, streaking down to nearside post, but Belgium got a foot on it and it bounced right to Higuaín. He twisted his body and hit it flush for the goal.


Argentina has been flying around early and doesn't look like they even need the help from a fortuitous bounce, but they'll take it.
