Lionel Messi scored his second sexy wonder goal in the world cup in Brazil for Argentina against Iran in extra time.

Iran had defended solidly throughout the game and also took the match to Argentina in the second half and looked very dangerous in their attacks, creating several chances to win the Group F match and cause a tournament sensation.

However, Iran was punished for those missed chances when Messi picked up the ball about 20 meters out and curled a shot into the left hand corner.
