At 02:00 Beijing time on June 27th (2 1:00 local time in St. Petersburg on 26th), the last match of Group D of the 20th18th World Cup was held in St. Petersburg Stadium. Argentina narrowly beat Nigeria 2-/kloc-0-,Messi took the lead, Moses equalised on penalty, and Royo won in the 86th minute.
Extended data:
Group D finally advanced from Croatia and Argentina to the top 16. It is not surprising that the two teams advanced. What is unexpected is that Argentina stumbled in the promotion process and was almost eliminated.
After winning two consecutive victories in Nigeria and Argentina, Croatia took a big rotation against Iceland in the third game, but finally won, and advanced to the knockout stage with three consecutive victories and goal difference of +6, making it the best team in the group stage.
However, Argentina, which was difficult to win in the first two games, beat the African eagle 2-/kloc-0-0 with Lionel Messi's wonderful goal and Marcuse Rojo's 86th minute winner, and got the second promotion ticket.
Iceland's legendary trip ended in the World Cup group match, but the draw with Argentina was a great achievement, which also showed the world that a "small country" with a population of more than 300,000 can also play such admirable football.
Nigeria has achieved the slogan of "not just hipsters", showing great resilience and speed. After losing to the top plaid army for the first time, Iceland was defeated in the second round, and the final round was "high probability promotion after a draw". Unfortunately, I still missed the knockout stage.
