01:30They can't get close to him.
01:33Argentina looking a threat already.
01:36Di Maria.
01:40Argentina with Di Maria.
01:44Has gone on here.
01:46All going back to their clubs in England.
01:49But it shouldn't really affect them too much tonight.

02:38And the fans bowing down to him.
02:41With less than 15 minutes gone.
02:48The touch here through the legs of Hakim.
02:52The finish was brilliant.

03:33Messi in.
03:38Di Maria.
03:39Beautiful feet.
03:40And he'll Di Maria.

03:49Lovely ball.

03:53Lautaro Martinez.
03:58Beautifully crafted.
04:00Messi still.

04:10Bolivia.
04:12Not dealt with at all.

04:47Martinez.
04:48Payne there on the inside of his boot.
04:52Messi.
04:54Lionel Messi.
04:56Messi.
05:00He just won't go in for Argentina right now.
05:03But that interplay was absolutely brilliant.
05:07Di Maria.
05:10The 33 and 34 year old doing it by themselves.
05:13Martinez.
05:15Paul who's gifted it here.
05:16Straight.
05:17Here's Di Maria.

05:25Yes he can.
05:26Di Maria.
05:27Lampe.
05:28Can't go.
05:31And in the evening.
05:33Ferocious effort.

05:36Also caught by Lampe.

05:46He has won.
05:47Looking for a second.
05:53Di Maria.
05:54Messi lets it go.
05:55Clarence doesn't go very far.
05:57De Paul.
05:58De Paul.
06:03Unable to keep it down.
06:13Space was there.
06:15He wasn't played in.
06:16Messi is.
06:17And Messi was fouled.
06:22Ramiro Vakka.
06:24Lucky if he doesn't pick up a yellow card here.
06:27Space for the superstar now.
06:29He's going through the gears.
06:30Messi.
06:32Wins another corner.
06:42His turn of pace is still frightening.
06:50Messi's corner.
06:52Lovely give and go.
06:53La Torre Martinez.
06:54Messi.
06:55And again.
07:02Messi and the double.
07:07He is now the outright top scorer.
07:10In South American international football history.
07:22He goes past the legendary Pele.
07:26And he did it here.
07:28With two bites of the cherry.
07:31He wasn't going to miss from there, was he?
07:40Correa's effort was blocked.
07:42Good save.
07:43The rebound.
07:46He has the hat-trick this time.
07:51It has been the Lionel Messi show once again.
07:56The maestro has done it.
