World Cup 1/8 Finals

FULL TIME. Argentina are through to face the Netherlands in the quarter-finals. They did enough to get 2-0 up here but the Aussies fought hard in the second half and got right back into it. Argentina should have killed it off with a host of good late chances which they spurned. There was nearly late drama as Australia could have equalised with the last kick of the game. Thanks for joining us. Argentina 2-1 Australia.

+7' CHANCE!!!!! So nearly 2-2 to Australia. A late, late clear chance falls to Kuol and he gets the shot on target but Emi Martinez makes a huge save from close range.

+5' CHAOS! Lautaro, De Paul and Messi all have shots either blocked or sent off target with Australia totally stretched.

+4' CLOSE! Messi nearly grabs another goal but his powerful shot flashes about a yard over the bar.

+2' Messi tees up Lautaro again and this time he fires towards goal but Australia block the effort.

Added time: seven minutes.

Australia deliver a long-throw. It causes some mayhem in the box but Emi Martinez claims it before Souttar delivers an elbow into his ribs.

Argentina is on to the next round! ??@JimmyConradad@SachaKljestanan@DaMarcusBeasleyey@MauriceEdudu an@cobijoneses d… https://t.co/w9vYcp82Qe#WCNowhttps://t.co/INJX6aoiiL
