00:00Sagan could be a busy man tonight's
00:04super atmosphere inside
00:07commanders field in excess of
00:0950,000 coming through the gates
00:12So many of them in the competition one last tune-up for the world champions on a warm night just outside
00:20Washington DC a World Cup qualifying win
00:23against the British Virgin Islands. Joe Dickerson is the referee tonight. That's his whistle for the
00:3050th win tonight as that ball is tipped away
00:34And it's in the net and Guatemala have got a sensational fourth minute lead at commanders field
00:54Rubio Rabin has been in gold scoring form for them
01:06Here's Lionel Messi tries to play the 1-2 Ardón is in front of his wide positions
01:16The overlap from Molina and the throw-in right down by the quarter flag
01:23in front of a
01:2641st cap tonight on a dreadful clearance Messi puts it in it's an equalizer for the world champions and
01:33Lionel Messi
01:35Has given them the moment to savor in Maryland
01:38And
01:48107th international goal for Lionel Messi a moment to forget for Nicolas Hagan and we're all square
01:57I mean you always say you can't give teams like Argentina a gift
02:02Not only can you not give our actually got a runner that far side
02:06And that brings me Martinez out and he's caught off his line
02:08But I think as you push it just over the top and he's only inches away from putting Guatemala back in
02:15But what an opportunity that was
02:20Messy with the free kick Hagan comes for it and he
02:24It's also chases and pushes over Jose Morales
02:29And gives away the free kick
02:31Oh
02:33They Guatemala
02:36Messy
02:38Wins the free kick, you know what I really like about Guatemala goal against an early
02:43as his cross that's messes touch
02:52And I want a free kick and it's a yellow card for Otamendi Cardoza
02:58And
03:01Headed back
03:04Dangerous pull in and at the back post in Guatemala
03:12We have a corner
03:22We don't want to let it get away this time and for those efforts
03:27You know card long way out messy hits it
03:33Even deals comfortably with that one
03:38Inside our dome
03:41That's overlapped as well
03:43Carboni
03:45Outside in Molina with time and space to cross and that's a really good sliding intervention on a silver canister tussling
03:53Hagan comes and gets
03:57I
03:58Was a high one and then volleyed
04:01Over by Martinez, but another deflection on the way another corner coming
04:07Historically
04:09Carboni's work that well down the right. Oh, what is he caught?
04:13Referees pointing to the spot and Argentina have a penalty talking about his 22 goals for Argentina
04:20That's number 23 and Argentina have turned it round in this first half
04:26They're into the lead
04:28But let's our Martinez scores from the spot. It's Argentina to Guatemala one
04:39Lovely sequence stand alone in nice. He's messy looking for his second of the night Hagan blocks it
04:45Oh
04:52There's 20 minutes or so they were getting up the field a little bit and he's in behind here
04:56Hagan's got the challenge in there is a flag up now. The ball is in the net
05:00Martinez actually hitting a corner. It's a so after that despite
05:04Argentina quite quickly getting back on level terms
05:07You know, it's really interesting to is
05:10Messy's kind of playing as an inverted winger and Carboni's playing as a true winger getting talks of as well
05:16Messi hits it off the inside of the post
05:22Danger not averted
05:26Carboni
05:27was also
05:29Teed up once they start in Atlanta on Thursday. They will face Chile who beat them of course in two straight
05:36Copa America finals
05:41Onside and Carboni now to the byline and Hagan with the catch
05:51Headed away only as far as the shot from Jose Morales. He scored in the World Cup qualifier last week
05:58That one is just over the top
06:01What it's really here and now that's nicely linked up and it's Gonzalez
06:08The desperate attention
06:14Hagan can watch that one sail comfortably wide
06:21Square goes to Renzo Fernandez. It comes back. It's set up for Martinez. It's a wonderful goal for Argentina
06:27His second of the night their third
06:31A trio of stars combining to deliver a moment of Argentinian beauty
06:47I mean right when Messi squares this ball just watch he's already running. He makes the run and you know that back line. They're just
06:55Wishing him offside. No one's going with them
06:57They're just hoping the timings off on the Alvarez or the Paul's got it back
07:01The substitute is in but the flag is up on the far side. He puts the ball in the net. It won't count
07:07Remind an OVA are tonight
07:10So Fernandez is going to come out at a moment as Alvarez chases that through and look who's in this time
07:14And all the way through is Messi
07:17Ardonne does enough
07:20Behind he goes
07:23A
07:24Very few flaws rise to his left. It's really an Alvarez for Argentina
07:28It's a good save from Hagan and it's an acrobatic
07:32Demaria effort over the top
07:36And Hagan, that's messy
07:39It's back to Messi. He's in on goal. He puts it into the net
07:43It's quite memorable in Maryland from Lionel Messi
07:50That's too good
07:52Oh
08:03Well
08:05we're on the doorstep to the nation's capital tonight and
08:08Soccer's commander-in-chief
08:10Certainly announces himself in town right here
