Аргентина отыграла 2-0 и победила Египет 3-2, выйдя в четвертьфинал Кубка мира

Argentina recovered from a 2-0 deficit late in the match against Egypt on Tuesday in Atlanta, scoring three goals in the final minutes to win 3-2 and secure a place in the World Cup quarterfinals. Cristian Romero opened the comeback with a header in the 79th minute, followed by Lionel Messi's 83rd-minute equaliser, his eighth of the tournament and a record-extending 21st World Cup goal. Enzo Fernández added the decisive goal in stoppage time.

Enzo Fernández, who netted the winner, said, "We have a phenomenal group, a group that never gives up no matter the difficulties and adversity. We’re always together." Julian Alvarez described the team's resilience, noting, "The heart of Argentinians is always something that pushes, that we keep going no matter what, and we give everything until the end."

Egypt took the lead early through Yasser Ibrahim and later extended it with Mostafa Zico, although a video review later disallowed a potential third goal. Egypt coach Hossam Hassan expressed disappointment, saying, "I’m not convinced with this outcome. We have been treated unfairly today."

Argentina will face the winner of the Switzerland-Colombia match on Saturday in Kansas City, Missouri, aiming to become the first team since Brazil in 1958-62 to win consecutive World Cup titles.
