Aguero waits on injury results

The severity of Sergio Aguero's muscle injury is still uncertain but the Argentina team insist that reports of the striker missing the duration of the FIFA World Cup™ are "nonsense". Aguero came off in the 38th minute of the 3-2 Group F victory in Porto Alegre and was anxiously waiting the results of tests to find out the extent of the injury. "It has not been confirmed that it is a tear, it could be a strain," the Argentine team's press officer Andres Ventura told AFP on Thursday morning. Aguero, 26, hobbled off the field to be replaced by Ezequiel Lavezzi, but Argentina coach Alejandro Sabella said only that he had a "muscle problem" after the match, while the player himself left the stadium without speaking to journalists. "It is a muscle injury, as Sabella already said after the match. To go from that to saying that he might not be able to play again in the World Cup is nonsense," added Ventura, hitting out at reports published in Argentina about the severity of the problem. A simple strain could leave Aguero on the sidelines for around 10 days, but a tear would likely keep him out for around two to three weeks, thereby bringing his World Cup to a premature end. Aguero endured an injury-affected season in England with Manchester City and has not produced his best form so far at the World Cup. http://img.fifa.com/mm/photo/tournament/competition/02/38/63/79/2386379_full-lnd.jpg

Argentina’s favourite son Lionel Messi once again showed his class with a fine brace to help Argentina edge past a resolute Nigeria 3-2 and top Group F with the African champions also qualifying for the last 16 of the FIFA World Cup on Wednesday. Messi scored his third goal of the World Cup in as many matches to give the Latin American side a sublime start in the third minute.

Di Maria’s three good strikes off the left foot were stopped by an alert Enyeama, who was kept busy. Argentina continued to hold possession for a better part of the first half but the Nigerian defence stood tall. But in stoppage time of the first half Messi’s mesmerising free kick gave Argentina a 2-1 lead. After Nigerian centre-back Kenneth Omerou took down Messi, Argentina were awarded a free kick. The Barcelona star lifted the ball over the wall and Enyeama for once was powerless to stop the curling kick, which landed perfectly in the back of the net. But Musa was not willing to give up as the Nigerian striker gave his team the equaliser in the 47th minute. The No.7 found himself in space inside the Argentina box and hit a sidefooted finish past Romero, who got his 50th Argentinean cap. Marcos Rojo put Argentina in the front once again in the 50th minute as the centre back scored his first international goal. The corner was swung to the back post from the Argentina left, and after defender Ezequiel Garay nodded the ball back across the box, Rojo was there to knee the ball home. Messi was finally withdrawn with half-an-hour left as the skipper went off the field amidst thunderous applause from the crowd with the job more or less done. Argentina forwards, Gonzalo Higuain, Sergio Aguero and Ezequiel Lavezzi—who came in for Messi, combined well to give the African giants many a scare could not find the net. In a hard fought game, Nigeria failed to get a point but their entry into the next stage was made possible by Bosnia Herzegovina, who closed the doors on Iran with a 3-1 win in another Group F game.

At the sound of an approaching boat, the people of this river village run out to greet their visitors, feather headdresses bobbing, loincloths and grass skirts rustling. Riding atop two of the women's heads, baby monkeys grab fistfuls of hair as they clutch on for dear life. A 40-minute ride up the Rio Negro from Manaus, the people of Aldeia Indigena Tatuyo are far removed from the global spectacle taking place in that World Cup host city. Here, amid the exuberant vegetation of the Amazon rainforest, two worlds meet, smile at one another and snap souvenir photos. The community of thatched palm roofed houses is home to nine families who moved to the riverside plot some 15 years ago from deep inside the rainforest, near Brazil's border with Colombia. The villagers lead a hybrid life, maintaining the ancestral traditions of their assorted tribes while enjoying some of the advantages of urban life. They hunt wild pigs, deer, the large rodents known as capybaras and other forest animals. They fish in the inky waters of the Rio Negro River and grow manioc and other sustenance crops. Visits by outsiders provide supplemental income, and they hope that before World Cup play wraps up in Manaus, with Honduras to face Switzerland on Wednesday, some of the international soccer fans will come to glimpse their way of life. While they normally wear the shorts, T-shirts and flip-flops that are standard fare throughout Brazil, the villagers change into their ceremonial finest to receive tourists. The men and boys don loincloths embellished in the back with bunches of freshly cut leaves and rattling anklets made from hollow seeds. The women and girls wear graceful skirts of dried grass. Everyone wears graphic face paint that melts with sweat during the aerobic ceremony of chants and rhythmic dances. The celebration is held in the village's central building, a dark lodge infused with the smell of smoke, and visitors snap away madly with their cameras while the more outgoing join in the dancing, much to the children's amusement. Other visitors try to coax the baby monkeys off their owners' heads and onto their own, with extremely limited success. Sometimes visitors join in the high-adrenaline, co-ed soccer matches that are the afternoon entertainment of choice for the villagers. After about an hour, the tourists pay a small fee, generally ranging from about $5 to $10 a person, depending on the size of the group, and hop back aboard their boat. "It's nice to have visitors," said Cecilia Godinho, a Guanano tribeswoman whose husband founded the village after accompanying an ailing relative to the hospital in Manaus. "We learn from them and I hope they learn from us, too." https://s1.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/Ot142EFwMib4hGjypRn.Gg--/YXBwaWQ9eW5ld3M7Zmk9aW5zZXQ7aD0xMDI0O3E9Nzk7dz0xNTM2/http://media.zenfs.com/en_us/News/ap_webfeeds/867f56e28138db18570f6a706700ce7f.jpg
