😱📹 Argentina score three late to seal EPIC comeback over Egypt | OneFootball

An afternoon for those with strong hearts at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. And one that brought Lionel Messi to tears. Watch the highlights:

Argentina were trailing Egypt 2-0 with 11 minutes left in regular time. But they pulled off an epic comeback with goals from Romero (79'), Messi (83') and Enzo Fernandez (92') to book a place in the quarter-finals.

Egypt put in an almost perfect performance until the final minutes. And they were helped by a standout display from goalkeeper Shobeir. He made several big saves and even stopped a penalty from Messi when the score was 1-0.

Egypt's goals were scored by Yasser Ibrahim, with a header, and Ziko, finishing off a counter-attack in the second half.

Romero pulled one back for Argentina with a header, sparking relentless pressure from the Argentinians.

At the same time, Egypt still had chances on the counter, but they couldn't put the game to bed.

Good news for Messi, who made up for his missed penalty and levelled the match in the 83rd minute.

Extra time? Not a chance.

From that point on, the game looked far more like an Argentine comeback than an Egyptian win. And the champions sealed the victory in stoppage time, when Enzo Fernandez rose to head home the third.

Argentina now await the result of the match between Switzerland and Colombia to find out their quarter-final opponents.

They've done it again!
