Argentina 0 Colombia 0: Messi misfires yet again as hosts battle to avoid early exit

Argentina's passage to the knock-out stage of the Copa America is in jeopardy after the hosts were held to a 0-0 draw by Colombia in another disappointing performance by Lionel Messi and his big-name teammates.

Coach Sergio Batista stuck with a similar side to the one that drew Argentina's opening game against Bolivia, and were again led by a misfiring Messi and Carlos Tevez.

Argentina's two star forwards were outplayed by Colombia strikers Radamel Falcao and Dayro Moreno, who had more chances and perhaps should have handed their team victory.
