A game that had major ramifications for all teams in Group C. Argentina & Poland clashed at Stadium 974, knowing a draw would take both sides through provided the other result too ends in their favour.
But nothing could be risked and that's how both sides played. Lionel Messi had a penalty saved in the first half & a tense half appeared to be on the cards. But Alexis Mac Allister with a scuffed effort put Argentina ahead & Julian Alvarez doubled the lead for the South Americans. Lionel Scaloni's side attacked at the closing minutes only for their attempt to be cleared off the line.
Despite the outcome of this high-octane clash, both Poland and Argentina marched into the Qatar 2022 Round of 16 as Mexico fell short against Saudi Arabia.
