Zieler was dismissed for a foul on Jose Sosa and, although replacement Marc ter Stegen saved Lionel Messi's resulting penalty, the visitors did not take long to seize the lead.
Sami Khedira put through an own goal in first-half injury time to set Argentina on their way and further second-half goals from Messi and Angel di Maria sealed the win before Benedikt Howedes' late consolation.
Holland continued their poor form heading out of a disappointing Euro 2012 as they fell 4-2 at neighbours Belgium.
Luciano Narsingh and Klaas Jan Huntelaar had cancelled out Christian Benteke's early opener for the home side, but further goals from Dries Mertens, Romelu Lukaku and Jan Vertonghen gave the Belgians an excellent win.
