Argentina tops Mexico 2-0 in vital win
After a stunning loss to Saudi Arabia in their first game, Argentina defeated Mexico 2-0 in the closely-watched Group C match.
Argentina’s two goals came courtesy of a long-distance strike from superstar forward Lionel Messi in the 64th minute and a shot to the top corner from midfielder Enzo Fernández in the 87th minute.
Argentina and Saudi Arabia now have three points each. The team that wins their third match in this round will likely head to the knockouts.
