Messi makes a dangerous left-footed shot from the center of the box, but Camilo Vargas dives to his bottom left to push the effort away. The chance comes from a precise cross delivered by Ángel Di María from the flank.

From a set-piece situation, Messi swings in a measured cross that finds Nicolás Tagliafico in the center of the box, but Tagliafico’s header flies just too high over the bar. Argentina miss a good opportunity created by Messi’s delivery.

After going down injured and receiving treatment around the 64th minute, Messi is forced off the pitch in the 66th minute. Nicolás González comes on to replace him as Argentina adjust following their captain’s injury.
