Messi levelled the game after Dorlan Pabon had opened the scoring just before halftime, before his attacking verve led to Aguero turning in a rebound from close range.

The win, however, fails to clear the doubts circling around Alejandro Sabella's charges, who until the equalizer struggled greatly against their rivals who were missing Radamel Falcao and Fredy Guarin amongst other first-teamers.

Germany down the Netherlands 3-0 at soccer friendly

Germany defeated Holland 3-0 on Tuesday in a friendly involving two of the favourites for next year's European Championship finals.

The 2010 World Cup runners-up were sunk by goals from Thomas Müller, Miroslav Klose and Mesut Ozil in front of a sellout crowd of 51,500 in Hamburg.

Müller put Germany, who finished third at the World Cup, in front after a lightning-fast attack in the 15th minute.

Toni Kroos sent in a high cross to Klose and he tapped the ball for Müller to beat the goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg with a shot into the corner.

Klose claimed his 63rd international goal 11 minutes later, latching on to a centre from Ozil to head home powerfully. The striker is now five goals short of Gerd Müller's record tally of 68 for Germany.Germany sealed the first victory since 1996 against the Netherlands attributed to a faultless performance by the German team against lax Dutchmen in front of home crowd in Hamburg on Tuesday.

Germany staged from the start offensively minded soccer whereas the Netherlands seemed idealess throughout the match. With only 14 minutes into the match, Germany opened the scoring after a terrific combination when striker Thomas Mueller finished the assist from Miroslav Klose.

The "Elftal" was shocked by the early deficit so that Germany were able to double the lead only ten minutes later when top striker Klose headed home a cross to mark his 63rd goal at 113 international caps.

An early goal from Sebastián Fernández gave the Copa América champions Uruguay a 1-0 win over the Euro 2012 finalists Italy in a friendly in Rome on Tuesday.

The Malaga forward steered home his second international goal in the third minute to inflict a third defeat on the Italy coach, Cesare Prandelli, since taking charge after the 2010 World Cup.

Spain need stoppage time to snatch 2-2 draw in Costa Rica friendly

Spain's poor form in friendlies continued when the world and European champions needed a stoppage-time David Villa goal to snatch a 2-2 draw at lowly Costa Rica.

After losing 1-0 to England on Saturday, the Spanish looked toothless in attack and vulnerable in defence in the first half of a rain-lashed match in San José, falling two goals behind at the break before raising their game in the second.

The captain, Iker Casillas, committed an uncharacteristic howler to gift the home side the lead on the day the 30-year-old set a new appearances record for the national team of 127.

The Real Madrid goalkeeper miscontrolled the ball near the edge of the penalty area just after the half-hour, surrendering possession to Randall Brenes and allowing the Costa Rica forward space to lift the ball into the empty net.Spain's poor form in friendlies continued when the world and European champions needed a stoppage-time David Villa goal to snatch a 2-2 draw at lowly Costa Rica on Tuesday.

Joe Manganiello is excited about the new season of True Blood. “Oh my god, I can’t f—ing wait. The fact that they’re basically busy casting an entire new pack of werewolves is unbelievable. There’s going to be like a werewolf show within the show this year, so I’m like a kid about it!” I'm hoping that means a lot of were-booty onscreen.Justin Timberlake followed through on a promise to take a marine to her unit's annual ball.

Cpl. Kelsey De Santis had invited Timberlake through a YouTube video to Saturday night’s event and Timberlake accepted. Timberlake wore a tuxedo to the ball at the Greater Richmond Convention Center.

De Santis, Timberlake wrote, “seemed like she was nervous about the whole evening and if I was going to enjoy myself. ‘Are you ok?’ she asked 2 or 3 times. ‘I hope you are having fun. I know you will once my crew of friends get here to the table.’ I have to tell you, it’s not every day that I meet a 23 year old girl and she’s more worried about if I’m having fun or if I’m comfortable!”

Timberlake’s “Friends With Benefits” co-star, Mila Kunis, earlier this year accepted a similar invitation to a Marine Corps Ball in Greenville, N.C.
