Argentina's maestro Lionel Messi made headlines again when he struck a genius goal in the Round of 16 match of FIFA World Cup 2022 vs Australia late on Saturday (December 3). Messi struck in the 35th minute of the match to get the South American side up 1-0 after Australia gave them a hard time in the first thirty minutes of the match. It was a difficult period for Argentina and it seems that they will again play an ordinary game of football just like against Saudi Arabia ten days ago. But it was not to be as Messi's side sealed the game 2-1 and moved to the quarter-finals where they will be playing the Netherlands.
