- Argentina leading 2-1
- Australia created late chance
- Can't beat Martinez
WHAT HAPPENED? Australia had a chance to equalise against Argentina in the last minute of stoppage time of their last 16 clash. The ball came to substitute Garang Kuol in the penalty area, and he only had Martinez to beat. However, the Argentina goalkeeper managed to spread himself and make the block, with a vital save that was celebrated by his team-mates.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Argentina had dominated the match but Australia got back in it when Craig Goodwin's strike deflected off Enzo Fernandez and made it 2-1 with a little over 10 minutes to go. Another goal would have sent the game into extra-time but the Socceroos couldn't find a way past Martinez.
WHAT NEXT FOR ARGENTINA? La Albiceleste go on to play the Netherlands in the quarter-finals.
