Argentina 2-1 Australia
Lionel Messi races onto a long ball forward but 35-year-old Messi doesn't have the legs anymore so he can't beat his defender. He was offside anyway.

Pat Nevin
Former Scotland winger on BBC Radio 5 LiveBehich, please get him to play at left wing! Don't stick him at left back, he is one of their best players on the pitch.
That was almost one of the best World Cup goals I have ever seen there. He's utterly brilliant going forward, completely wasted at the back.

Crazy how much a goal can change the momentum of a football game. Argentina were cruising and now they're hanging on a bit.

Argentina 2-1 Australia
Dundee United's Aziz Behich almost scores one of the goals of the tournament for Australia.
He goes on a lovely run, taking on several players - every bit as good as that Lionel Messi dribble earlier. He cuts inside Nicolas Otamendi and just as he's about to hammer in to make it 2-2, Lisandro Martinez throws himself at the shot and saves Argentina.

Pat Nevin
Former Scotland winger on BBC Radio 5 LiveAnything can happen. Suddenly one little thing changes. Behich goes flying up there, crosses in and when it comes back out, they get a bit of luck. You want to see that happen a bit more often from the Australians. Players know this is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

The shot is going miles wide. They couldn't, could they?

Craig Goodwin
HELLO NOW.
Out of nowhere, Australia are back in this!
Aziz Behich's cross is headed out to Craig Goodwin, whose 25-yard shot looks like it's flying miles wide until it hits Enzo Fernandez and flies into the bottom corner.

Former Scotland winger on BBC Radio 5 LiveMy heart was in my mouth there with that Jackson Irvine challenge. He is very very lucky and he must be on his absolute last chance now, being on a yellow card already.
