Argentina stages dramatic comeback against Egypt to reach World Cup quarterfinals

Lionel Messi played a pivotal role, despite missing a penalty earlier in the match. Egypt had taken the lead with a goal from Yasser Ibrahim in the 15th minute, and extended their advantage to 2-0 with a goal from Mostafa Zico in the 67th minute. Messi then assisted Cristian Romero's goal in the 79th minute, followed by his own goal in the 83rd minute to equalize.

Enzo Fernandez scored the winning goal in stoppage time, securing Argentina's place in the next round. The win follows another close match for Argentina in the round of 32 against Cape Verde, which went into extra time. Argentina will now face either Switzerland or Colombia in the quarterfinals.
