The latter then makes a sensational run towards the penalty box. He had options to pass as two defenders converged. Sosa tried to intercept but the ball bounced back to Alvarez who chiped it through Livakovic for an outstanding solo goal When you can't pick a fav between Messi and Modric 😅 12:00am - If Lionel Messi plays, he will equal Lothar Matthaus for the most appearances in World Cup history (25). As well as being Argentina’s joint-highest goalscorer in the competition (10), he’s one assist away from equalling Diego Maradona’s overall record of eight at World Cup finals (since 1966). 11:45pm - Croatia has never failed to score in their 10 World Cup knockout stage matches.
