Argentina Eyes Quarterfinals Against Egypt | MLS News

Argentina’s quest for World Cup glory continues as they aim to secure a quarterfinal spot against undefeated Egypt in Atlanta. After a shaky but victorious extra-time win over Cabo Verde — where they surrendered two leads and relied on an own goal — Argentina returns with confidence and firepower. Goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez, despite recent lapses, remains clutch; defenders like Cristian Romero and Lisandro Martínez shine, especially on set pieces. Midfield maestro Rodrigo De Paul and rising star Enzo Fernández anchor a dynamic engine, while Thiago Almada steps up wide. And of course, Lionel Messi — leading the charge with seven goals and tied for the Golden Boot — will be pivotal alongside Lautaro Martínez or Julián Álvarez. With Egypt’s perfect record and Argentina’s depth, this could be a classic — and a crucial step toward the final four.
