BRASILIA, Brazil -- Gonzalo Higuains first goal of this World Cup sent Argentina into the semifinals on Saturday with a 1-0 win over a disappointing Belgium. Argentina, which hadnt advanced past the World Cup quarterfinals since 1990, put in its best performance so far in the tournament, controlling the match after Higuains eighth minute goal. The Napoli striker fired home Angel Di Marias deflected pass just inside the area, beating Belgium goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois with a low shot to the far corner of the net. Higuain came close to making it 2-0 in the second half when his shot smashed into the crossbar. Belgium lacked the creativity to find a way past Argentinas defensive line, and created few clear chances apart from a pair of headers by Kevin Mirallas and Marouane Fellaini.

The defenceman scored his second goal of the game on a power play at 4:09 of overtime, giving Colorado a 3-2 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Tuesday night. The Avalanche won their second straight and improved to 6-1-1 in their last eight games despite getting outshot 48-26 and blowing a two-goal lead. With Jonathan Toews off for hooking, Barrie fired the game-winner past Corey Crawford on a one-timer from the left circle after taking a cross-ice pass from Matt Duchene. "This is huge for us," Barrie said. "We want to keep climbing in the standings." The 22-year-old Barrie was an unlikely star in this one. After his first two-goal game in the NHL, he has five goals this season and seven in his career. "This is a tough building to get one point in, so we got the one. We were fortunate to get the power play there, and were able to get the two points," he said. The Avalanche also avenged a 7-2 drubbing by the Blackhawks in Chicago on Dec. 27. Colorado is 6-1-2 since that loss. "We wanted to have a good bounce-back game after that," Barrie said. "If you can beat the champs, its always nice." Barrie and Ryan OReilly scored 1:02 apart late in the first period to stake Colorado to a 2-0 lead. OReilly has three goals in his last two games. But if goalie Semyon Varlamov hadnt made 46 saves in a solid -- and sometimes spectacular -- effort, the game wouldnt have been close. "Hes been like this since the start of the year," Avalanche coach Patrick Roy said. "Hes been outstanding. We rally around him. "That was the type of performance we needed from our goalie to beat the Blackhawks." Chicagos Andrew Shaw scored at 7:27 of the third to tie it. He also assisted on Johnny Oduyas goal in the second. But that was all Varlamov allowed. "We just couldnt find a way to score enough goals to win," Toews said. "It is a frustrating game, but well stay with it and we know we can build off that effort and start playing better hockey than we have been the last few games." Varlamov improved to 9-0-5 in his last 15 games, including 14 starts -- the longest streak of his career without a regulation loss.dddddddddddd His last defeat in regulation was at Phoenix on Dec. 10, when the Avalanche lost 3-1. Crawford finished with 23 saves. The Blackhawks have dropped their last seven games that have gone past regulation, dating to a 2-1 shootout win in Dallas on Nov. 29. The defending Stanley Cup champions are 4-11 this season in games that go longer than 60 minutes. They are 0-5 in overtime and 4-6 in shootouts. Colorado defenceman Erik Johnson left late in the second period with a lower-body injury. He tried to return for a shift in the third, but didnt continue. Colorado led 2-0 after the first period despite being outplayed until about 14 minutes in, when the Blackhawks held a 12-3 advantage in shots. But Barrie opened the scoring on a soft screened shot from just inside the right point with 5:02 left in the first. He flipped the puck past several players and it sailed over Crawfords glove. OReilly made it 2-0 with a power-play goal on a crisp passing play 10 seconds after Kris Versteeg was sent off for hooking. OReilly slipped the puck past Crawford after a wide-open setup at the edge of the crease. The Blackhawks pushed back and turned up the pressure in the second, outshooting Colorado 10-1 in the first half of the period and 16-6 overall. But Chicago only managed to cut Colorados lead to 2-1, cashing in on Oduyas deflection of Brandon Saads screened shot from the slot. Shaw tied it on a rebound. He swept in a shot from 10 feet out after Varlamov stopped Saad from point-blank range. Chicagos Michal Rozsival hit the right post on a shot with about 7:30 left. Crawford made a point-blank stop on a wide-open Cody McLeod with just more than 3 minutes left. Toews tripped Andre Benoit at 3:34 of overtime following a Chicago turnover to prevent a possible breakaway, but the ensuing power play led to Barries game-winner.
