Messi inspires 3-2 Argentina comeback against Egypt

Argentina produced a remarkable late comeback to book their place in the World Cup quarter-finals with a dramatic 3-2 victory

Cristian Romero sparked the revival in the 79th minute, giving Argentina hope with a crucial goal.

Lionel Messi then brought his side level in the 83rd minute, scoring from open play to register his eighth goal of the tournament.

Just as the match appeared destined for extra time, Enzo Fernández scored in the second minute of stoppage time to complete the comeback and seal Argentina’s place in the last eight.

Argentina will now face the winner of the Round of 16 tie between Switzerland and Colombia in Kansas City on July 11.
