Jul 7, 2026 11:37 PM IST Argentina vs Egypt, FIFA World Cup Live Score: FULL TIME!
ARGENTINA 3-2 EGYPT A bit of a scuffle towards the end there between Lautaro Martinez and and Attia.
That is almost the last act of a truly epic game.
The referee blows the whistle.
Argentina are through to the quarterfinals despite trailing 2-0 in the 70th minute of this match.
Tears of joy for Messi, of sorrow for Salah.
Messi wasn't having the best of days for much of this game and yet, he provided the assist for the first goal that Romero scored and then smashed in the second himself.
Egypt were fuming after Enzo Fernandez scored the third as they thought that there was a foul by Mac Allister on Fathy in the Argentine box at the start of the turnover.
The brilliant Shobeir, immense for much of this match and particularly in the first half, was also shown a yellow card in that scuffle.
One has to feel for the Egyptians.
Their journey has meant a lot to not just Egyptians, and many more countries around the world.
Mohamed Salah said goodbye to Liverpool a couple of months ago, thus ending a glorious chapter in his a career.
Wonder if he will decide to end this chapter as well with his beloved Pharaohs.
Messi, so calm and collected after most victories, can't stop crying today.
He has won everything that can possibly be won in this sport, and yet here he is, crying tears of joy after winning a round of 16 match in the World Cup.
Football, eh?
