FIFA World Cup Round of 16 Live: Defending champions Argentina chase quarter-final spot against Egypt
Argentina return to familiar territory as they look to book another place in the quarter-finals of the FIFA World Cup. The reigning champions topped Group K with three straight wins before surviving a major shock in the Round of 32. The Cape Verde debutants pushed Lionel Scaloni’s side into extra time before a late own goal helped Argentina escape with a 3-2 win.
The road to Egypt was equally dramatic. The Pharaohs reached the knockout stage for the first time after recording their first World Cup win during the group stage and then defeating Australia 4-2 on penalties after a 1-1 draw. No team has lost a match in this tournament so far.
