Argentina 2:0 Austria — Informe del Partido

Gary RedknappGary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO
Lionel Messi scored twice as Argentina beat Austria 2-0 in the World Cup, the forward proving the decisive difference, and the result sets up a next fixture against Cape Verde on 3 July. Argentina controlled the contest from start to finish, though the scoreline took time to reflect their dominance.
The turning point arrived in the 38th minute when Facundo Medina slipped a pass through to Lionel Messi, who curled a precise finish beyond the Austrian goalkeeper. Stefan Posch was booked two minutes later for a frustrated challenge, and Konrad Laimer followed him into the book in the 76th minute, the same minute Medina was cautioned. Messi sealed the win in the 90th minute with a second goal, while Leandro Paredes also saw yellow in stoppage time. A VAR check in the seventh minute passed without incident.
Argentina thoroughly deserved the win, as they were the better side throughout the first and second halves. CheckLive's model rated Argentina marginally ahead, and the result confirmed that prediction; the live signal on Argentina at 1.12 was also a winning bet. Argentina next face Cape Verde on 3 July.
