Hello and welcome to our live coverage of the World Cup game between Argentina and Iran in Belo Horizonte. A win puts Argentina into the next round.

FULL TIME: Argentina 1-0 Iran

You have to feel sorry for Iran. They have put so much effort into this game and deserved to take a point. In the end the quality of Argentina and in particular Messi has proved the difference.

And that's why he's the best. When his team needed him most he pops up with a sensational goal.

GOOOOOOOOOAL! Argentina 1 (91 mins - Lionel Messi) Iran 0. He's done it! What a goal! WIth time running out Messi has just wrapped his foot round a shot from the edge of the box and found the bottom corner!

Four minutes of stoppage time to be played.

Argentina come forward once again. Iran are camped deep inside their own half. But the South Americans are finding it difficult to break them down, and time is running out.... fast!

This Iranian team has put so much effort into this game. They haven't stopped running and have kept their defensive discipline all the way through the game. They deserve to take a point from this.

That would have been incredible! In the end Ghoochanneljhad just didn't have the legs to go all the way. Zabaleta put just enough pressure on him to force his shot straight at the keeper.

Another chance for Iran! They come forward on the counter attack from an Argentine corner, playing the ball in behind the defence for Ghoochanneljhad, but the Charlton striker sees his shot from 18 yards saved by Romero!

Another cross gets flung into the Iran box, with Palacio at the back post this time. He tries to find the near post, which takes the keeper by surprise, but after adjusting his feet Haghighi makes the stop.

Argentina come forward once again, with Rojo in an unfamiliar position on the right side. But when he cuts inside onto his left foot he slices his effort wide of the target.

The ball is swung into the back post area, where Fernandez is. But the defender, who is playing almost as a makeshift striker can't find the target and has to knock it back across goal. Iran clear.

Lavezzi rides a couple of tackles inside the box but is then challenged by Pooladi, who puts the ball behind for a corner kick, which eventually comes to nothing. Iran's defence continues to hold firm.

You get the feeling that Iran, having given it a go at the start of the second half, are quite content with a point here and are packing the backline. Argentina just can't break them down!

Sabella finally makes a change, throwing on two strikers - Palacio and Lavezzi. It is pretty much a like-for-like swap, but Argentina will be hoping those two can bring them the cutting edge they've been lacking.

Argentina sub: Sergio Aguero and Gonzalo Higuain OFF, Ezequiel Lavezzi and Rodrigo Palacio ON.

Iran sub: Masoud Shojaei OFF, Khosro Heydari ON

Messi lines up a freekick on the edge of the box, and while the shape on his effort is good it lands in the side netting. Half the fans inside this stadium thought that was in! It wasn't far away.

YELLOW CARD: Masoud Shojael (Iran)
