(Thomas Coex\/AFP\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n<p>ATLANTA \u2014 Lionel Messi wasn\u2019t ready for it to be over.<\/p>\n<p>Argentina trailed England well into the final minutes of Wednesday\u2019s World Cup semifinal, but two assists from Messi \u2014 Argentina\u2019s talisman, superstar and heartbeat \u2014 lifted his team to yet another comeback and a date with Spain in Sunday\u2019s final.<\/p>\n<p>After setting up Enzo Fernandez for the equalizer in the 85th minute, Messi played a cross to Lautaro Martinez in the 93rd, and Martinez headed it past England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford to keep Argentina\u2019s hopes of winning back-to-back World Cups alive.<\/p>\n<p>Argentina had to survive another nine-plus minutes of second-half stoppage time after Martinez scored, which it did with minimal fuss \u2014 or at least minimal fuss by the chippy, edgy standards of the game as a whole \u2014 to secure the 2-1 victory.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey don\u2019t feel the weight on their shoulders,\u201d Argentina Coach Lionel Scaloni said of his team through an interpreter. \u201cMessi today, the last 15, 20, 25 minutes, anytime he could, he just got the ball. \u2026 When you see that kind of grit, that kind of show from the players \u2014 they\u2019re playing like they\u2019re 7- or 8-year-olds. They\u2019re not thinking about what\u2019s going to happen if we miss. They\u2019re thinking about football, what they\u2019ve done their entire lives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Before the ball was even kicked, emotions were running high among the fanbases. Though the crowd appeared to be near a 50-50 split between England and Argentina, the latter\u2019s fans produced enough noise to drown out both Neil Diamond\u2019s \u201cSweet Caroline,\u201d which the England fans were singing along to, and the English national anthem.<\/p>\n<p>The countries\u2019 rivalry extends beyond the pitch. The Falklands War in 1982, battled over the islands off the southern coast of Argentina that England claims sovereignty over, looms large in the Argentine national consciousness. Argentina\u2019s foreign minister, Pablo Quirno, referred to the British population of the islands as \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/policy\/sports-gaming\/5967999-england-argentina-world-cup-game-ignites-old-tensions-over-falkland-islands\/\" rel=\"\" target=\"_self\" title=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/policy\/sports-gaming\/5967999-england-argentina-world-cup-game-ignites-old-tensions-over-falkland-islands\/\">artificially implanted<\/a>\u201d in the days before the match, a comment that British Prime Minister Keir Starmer\u2019s office <a href=\"https:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/world-news\/2026\/07\/13\/starmer-rejects-argentina-pablo-quirno-falklands-essay\/\" rel=\"\" target=\"_self\" title=\"https:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/world-news\/2026\/07\/13\/starmer-rejects-argentina-pablo-quirno-falklands-essay\/\">pushed back on<\/a> by saying, \u201cThe Falkland Islanders are British with the right to determine their own future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After the final whistle, as they celebrated on the field, Argentina\u2019s Lisandro Martinez and Giovani Lo Celso held up a banner that read \u201cLas Malvinas son Argentinas,\u201d proclaiming that the \u201cMalvinas,\u201d as the Falklands are known in Argentina, are Argentine.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7614\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/movinginsiderusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/1a0b85315b416f6d8eba2f60e9d87450-1024x683.jpg\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/movinginsiderusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/1a0b85315b416f6d8eba2f60e9d87450-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/movinginsiderusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/1a0b85315b416f6d8eba2f60e9d87450-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/movinginsiderusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/1a0b85315b416f6d8eba2f60e9d87450-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/movinginsiderusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/1a0b85315b416f6d8eba2f60e9d87450-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/movinginsiderusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/1a0b85315b416f6d8eba2f60e9d87450-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<figcaption>Argentina&#8217;s Giovani Lo Celso holds a banner with the words &#8220;The Malvinas are Argentine,&#8221; referring to the Falkland Islands on Wednesday.

In 1986 and in 1998, Argentina was wearing dark blue, rather than its traditional blue-and-white striped jersey, when it eliminated England.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps befitting of the tensions, the first half was a soccer aesthete\u2019s nightmare, with 19 combined fouls \u2014 12 by Argentina and seven by England \u2014 and just three total shots, none of which required a save from either goalkeeper. It was, instead, 45 minutes of fouling and dramatics, as Argentina tried to rattle England with a physical, emotional edge and England responded with plenty of physicality of its own.<\/p>\n<p>The first confrontation between the players came less than four minutes in. Fernandez fouled England\u2019s Elliot Anderson, and their teammates came chest-to-chest in defense of their own. It was Anderson, much later, who received the game\u2019s first yellow card for a hard foul on Messi. Referee Ismail Elfath didn\u2019t issue his first booking until the 37th minute.<\/p>\n<p>Five minutes later, Argentina\u2019s Lisandro Martinez was swiftly issued a yellow card for yanking Rogers\u2019 jersey, but the back-to-back bookings did little to quell the undercurrent of nastiness.<\/p>\n<p>After Elfath blew his whistle for halftime, both Messi and England captain Harry Kane went to speak with him to express their frustrations with the officiating.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/movinginsiderusa.com\/?p=7610\">Flyers lock up Trevor Zegras with a 4-year deal worth $9.125M per year<\/a><\/p>\n<p>In the 55th minute, England\u2019s Anthony Gordon finally opened the scoring. Kane, England\u2019s star striker, dropped deep into midfield to play a long ball up the field that fell to Declan Rice after a failed clearance by Argentina.<\/p>\n<p>Rice quickly found Morgan Rogers, who spotted Gordon on the far side of the field about to make a run toward the net behind his defender. Gordon timed his run perfectly for Rogers\u2019s cross and beat goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez at the back post.<\/p>\n<p>The early physicality served its purpose of keeping Messi quiet, but a player of his abilities needs only a few opportunities to change everything for his team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe most dangerous players, when they have the ball in the final third, they can create something, and Lionel did today,\u201d Kane said. \u201cHe\u2019s obviously one of the best players ever for a reason. Disappointed to give up the space that we did in those final 20 minutes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After the second hydration break, England sat deep to defend its lead and Argentina fired chance after chance at Pickford. England used a deep defensive line to its success against Mexico in the round of 16, but against Argentina\u2019s superior offensive talent, it invited the inevitable.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe got a bit passive after the goal, defended probably a little bit too deep,\u201d Burn said. \u201cThe quality of chances that Argentina were creating, yeah, I felt like it was a matter of time. We conceded too many crosses and too many chances.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the 85th minute, Messi rolled the ball to Fernandez at the top of the 18-yard box, and Fernandez\u2019s clean strike sailed past Pickford just inside the post.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor the majority, I thought we did pretty well [against Messi],\u201d Burn said. \u201cBut that really shows you the quality of player he is, where you can keep him quiet for most of the game and he still pops up with two assists.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nine minutes were added to the end of the second half, giving Argentina all the time it needed to pull off the comeback once again. Martinez\u2019s winner wasn\u2019t quite Maradona\u2019s \u201cHand of God,\u201d in controversy or in instant memorialization, but perhaps it will come to be known as the \u201cHead of God\u201d if Argentina pulls off another win Sunday against Spain. Only two teams \u2014 Italy in 1938 and 1942 and Brazil in 1958 and 1962 \u2014 have won consecutive World Cups.<\/p>\n<p>After coming from behind in the third straight knockout game of this World Cup, Argentina is full of belief that it can be the third.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is a show of the collectiveness, the brotherhood that we are in, the fight till the very end that we\u2019ve got,\u201d Scaloni said. \u201cAnd after this, we\u2019re going to go to the final. We\u2019re going to win the final, we\u2019re going to try to win the final.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know you recognize and acknowledge, you\u2019re very well aware of how special this team is. I don\u2019t have much else to say. This is all thanks to them. Without them, all this would be impossible.
