Argentina wins first gold in 52 years
ATHENS, Greece (AP) -- Carlos Tevez scored his eighth goal of the tournament as
Argentina captured a long-overdue gold medal at the Olympic soccer tournament
on Saturday by beating Paraguay 1-0.
The 20-year-old Boca Juniors striker, a likely transfer target for Europe's
topclubs, scored the only goal of the final in the 18th minute at the Olympic
Stadium as Argentina made up for two runners up finishes in 1928 and 1996.
Already an underdog for the final, Paraguay was reduced to nine men after
Emilio Martinez was sent off for elbowing Andres D'Alessandro in the face in
the 67th minute and Diego Figueredo was shown a second yellow six minutes
from the end.
But the runner-up medal was still Paraguay's first ever at the Olympics at any
sport.
In a final played at 10.00 am local time (0700 GMT) for soccer's only game in
the Olympic Stadium, Argentina's victory was a huge relief for coach Marcelo
Bielsa who had been told to come home with nothing but the gold medal.
For Valencia defender Roberto Ayala, it also made up for the disappointment of
the silver medal he collected when Argentina lost 3-2 to Nigeria eight years
ago.
If Paraguay didn't already have a tough enough job to stop the hot favorite,
striker Jose Cardozo -- who had scored five goals including two in the
semifinal beating of Iraq -- was ruled out because of an injury he suffered
in the game in Thessaloniki.
The Paraguayan defense relied on a blatant offside trap to try to defend their
goal and, although Luis Gonzalez had the ball in the Paraguayan net in the
10th minute it was ruled out.
But it didn't take long for Argentina to go ahead and it was no surprise who
scored it.
A break from defense by AC Milan's Fabricio Coloccini started the move when
he ran 30 meters from his own area and released Mauro Rosales down the right.
He crossed to the near post and Tevez ran between defenders Julio Manzur and
Carlos Gamarra to prod the ball home from six meters.
The Paraguayan defenders seemed terrified whenever Tevez was running at them
and both Gamarra and Manzur were shown yellow cards for hauling him down as
if in punishment for his goal.
As Argentina threatened again, D'Alessandro beat two men just outside the
Paraguay area but shot wide of the left post. Then goalkeeper Diego Barreto
fumbled a leftwing cross from Cesar Delgado straight to Luis Gonzalez whose
first time shot was over the bar from the edge of the area.
Just before half time, Tevez nearly struck again when the confident striker
cut in from the left and aimed a low shot toward the far corner, but the
'keeper fisted it away at full stretch.
Inter Milan's Kily Gonzalez put Argentina in trouble when he conceded a free
kick not far outside its area two minutes into the second half and was shown
the yellow for tripping Fredy Bareiro.
Aureliano Torres curled the free kick round the wall but 'keeper German Lux
dived full length to his right to clutch the ball by the post.
It was almost 2-0 a minute later, however, when Rosales arrived at the far post
to meet a leftwing cross but headed wide of the post.
Then a rightwing corner by Rosales was headed on by Delgado at the near post.
Luis Gonzalez seemed certain to score as he raced in to connect from five
meters out but goalkeeper Barreto managed to deflect the ball over the bar
with his body.
Paraguay was reduced to 10 men when Martinez was sent off by Greek referee
Kyros Vassaras for felling D'Alessandro with his elbow to halt another
promising Argentina move.
But 10-man Paraguay almost leveled in the 72nd minute when Figueredo swapped
passes with Pablo Gimenez and got away from the defense only for Argentina's
keeper Lux to stick out his left hand and block the shot.
Tevez raced clear of the Paraguay defense but Barreto raced out of goal to
block his first angled shot. The Boca Juniors striker pulled the ball back to
Kily Gonzalez but, with Barreto off his line, Gamarra got back to clear off
the line.
Figueredo was the second Paraguayan to be sent off when he was shown his second
yellow card for trying to use his hand to turn home a free kick by Ernesto
Cristaldo.
Summary
Argentina 1 Paraguay 0
Scorer: Carlos Tevez 18
Red cards: Emilio Martinez (Paraguay) 66, Diego Figueredo (Paraguay) 82
Halftime 1-0
Referee: Kyros Vassaras (Greece)
