France benefitted from the introduction of goal-line technology in their comfortable win over Honduras, Switzerland earned a dramatic, late win over Ecuador, while Lionel Messi sparkled for Argentina against Bosnia-
Herzegovina.

France defeated 10-man Honduras 3-0 in a World Cup match that saw goal-line technology used to prove Les Blues' second strike was legitimate in Porto Alegre.
Just before half-time, Wilson Palacios received his second yellow of the match after he bundled over Paul Pogba in the box. Karim Benzema stepped up and slammed home the penalty kick.
France doubled their lead three minutes into the second half. Benzema saw his shot clip the woodwork and bounce down off Valladares, who attempted to claw the ball out only for the goal to be awarded by goal-line technology.

Benzema did get his second goal before full-time, though, as he lashed into the roof of the net, sealing three points for France in their opening Group E game.
  In the same group, Switzerland substitute Haris Seferovic snatched a dramatic winner with 23 seconds left of added time to inflict a 2-1 loss on Ecuador in Brasilia.

Lionel Messi's wonderful goal proved decisive as Argentina claimed a 2-1 win in their opening game of the 2014 World Cup against tournament debutants Bosnia-Herzegovina at the Maracana.

Argentina took the lead inside three minutes when defender Sead Kolasinac diverted Messi's free kick beyond his own goalkeeper, Asmir Begovic.
The rest of the first half, however, failed to live up to the fast start, with Senad Lulic's header that drew a fine save from Argentina goalkeeper Sergio Romero the only genuine threat of another goal.

After a frustrating hour, Messi turned on the style. The Barcelona man burst forward, played a one-two with substitute Gonzalo Higuain, skipped by his markers and curled home off the foot of the post.
Argentina looked to be set for a comfortable finale only for Vedad Ibisevic's late strike to set up a nervy finish -- but it was too little, too late for Bosnia-Herzegovina.

We saw this coming, argentine team is one of the teams in the worldcup to respect.
In this group, Nigeria vs Iran will be coming up today.
