JOY: Argentina celebrate their empathic win

PSG star Javier Pastore finished off a superb crisp counter to make it two but Lucas Barrios drew one back for Paraguay just before the break.

But after half time, Argentina turned on the style and Di Maria netted twice in just six minutes to all but kill off the contest.

Manchester City star Sergio Aguero and Napoli's Gonzalo Higuian scored late on to complete the rout and send the 1993 champions through.
