MOTD Live: FIFA World Cup 2026
Second Round-of-16 Match
Coverage of the second round-of-16 match (Kick-off 10.00pm), which takes place at Philadelphia Stadium in the USA. Lionel Messi made his 1,000th career appearance and scored a 789th career goal as he inspired Argentina to a 2-1 victory over Australia at this stage in Qatar in 2022. Julian Alvarez capitalised on an error by Aussie goalkeeper Mathew Ryan to double Argentina's lead in the second-half, but the Socceroos halved the deficit when Craig Goodwin's strike took a huge deflection off Enzo Fernández with a little under 15 minutes left, and if not for the excellence of Argentine goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez could have found a late equalizer
