Argentina lead the Netherlands in their World Cup quarter-final clash with Lionel Messi catching the headlines once again. Nahuel Molina opened the scoring for Argentina in the 35th minute with Messi grabbing the assist.
The Paris Saint-Germain superstar is currently joint-second in the World Cup goal scoring charts, behind his club teammate Kylian Mbappe. Messi is hoping to help Argentina progress into the semi-finals to set up a difficult clash against Croatia after they knocked Brazil out of the tournament after a shock penalty shootout victory.
All the take pre-match was about the 35-year-old who continues to dazzle opposition with his immense dribbling and stunning finishing ability. Messi has not disappointed against the Netherlands as he produced another moment of magic to set up Molina's goal in the first half, dancing past a tackle before slotting an inch-perfect pass through for his teammate to convert.
