Argentina 2-1 Holland. Post-game reaction: Argentina coach, Sergio Batista said in Spanish in the press conference, "First we're going to see the videos to see how Brasil plays and then we will draw conclusions. We respect them very much like they do us. I think they're worried they will face Argentina, like we are too.
About playing a 120 minute game: "We both had the same exhaustion, a long 120 minute game and the one that is best will go to the final. We came to the Olympics to win the medal and we hope to aciheve it."
About the 2-1 victory today: "Luckily today we achieved an important triumph. We created many goal opportunities that we couldn't convert, but I think we were superior. It got difficult but I am happy with the performance of the team."
About goalkeeper's Oscar Ustari injury: "For us Ustari is a very immportant player, it's an unfortunate injury even though we don't know well what he has. Oscar is important in the game and for the team."

It reminded me of goalkeeper 'Pato' walking off the 2006 world cup game against Germany with an injury.
