2nd Semi-Final: A Latin Affair

2005 Confederations Cup Argentina v Mexico

2nd Semi-Final: A Latin Affair.

Argentina and Mexico square off today in Hannover with the lure of having a pop at Brazil in the Frankfurt final on Wednesday the prize and the 3rd place play-off against Germany in Leipzig the consolation.

For Mexico, the surprise winners of group B, it is a chance to prove that their 1-0 win over Brazil, courtesy of Jared Borgetti's header, was no flash in the pan. Argentina, for their part, have not lost a semi-final since 1987's Copa America.

The match in the rebuilt Niedersachsenstadion kicks off at 1800h local time and Soccerphile will be on hand to report all the goings-on at the second Confederations Cup Semi-Final.
