It was the Argentine star's 1, 000th career appearance in international and club matches. This victory keeps the dream of a World Cup trophy alive for Messi in what is likely his last appearance in the tournament. Argentina will next face Netherlands in the quarterfinals on Friday. 4:01 p. ET, December 3, 2022Australia is back in the game with a goal! Australia fans celebrate their first goal during the match between Australia and Argentina in Sydney, Australia on Sunday, December 4. (Loren Elliott/Reuters)Forward Craig Goodwin launched a long shot toward Argentina's goal, sending the ball ricocheting off a defender and into the net as keeper Emiliano Martínez looked on. This closes the gap, with Argentina leading 2-1 in the 77th minute. The shot appeared to be veering wide off of Goodwin's foot, and the official scorer ultimately charged an own goal to Argentine midfielder Enzo Fernández.
Thousands of people – creating a sea of blue and white – have come to watch their hero in what is likely to be his last World Cup tournament. It seems you don’t need to be from Argentina to be a fan of the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner. “I get to see the man himself, ” Belal Ahmed, who traveled from the US to watch Messi play, told CNN Sport. “It took a while, the flight from the US to Saudi Arabia was about 12 hours. I had a layover there for 24 hours and then got here (Doha) two hours later. “I’m here to see other games, but yeah, mainly to see Messi. ”Messi is a name that seems to bridge any language barrier, with fans coming over and chanting the forward's name as Ahmed spoke with CNN.
The forward capitalized on a critical mistake from Australian keeper Matt Ryan. With Argentina applying pressure and the Aussies simply trying to get the ball out of their own half, Ryan took a pass back from one of his defenders and needed one too many touches to handle it. Álvarez pounced, robbing the ball from his feet and simply rolling it into the empty net. Argentina looks firmly in control of this match, though there's plenty of time left to play.

Pelé was hospitalized for a “re-evaluation of the chemotherapy treatment over colon cancer identified in September 2021, ” the Albert Einstein Israeli Hospital said in a statement released Saturday.
Both sides will have learned from Brazil's 3-2 victory last Sunday, inspired by a Marta hat-trick which saw the hosts come back from two goals down. The legendary Brazilian forward is one of the all-time greats and the US defence will need to be better organised if they are to keep her quiet on Sunday. While the USA come into the final on the back of their 7-0 drubbing of Argentina, that is their only win of the tournament so far, while Brazil have had three wins including their most recent 4-1 victory over a China PR side who held Ellis' side to a draw.
Stars like France's Kylian Mbappé, England's Harry Kane and Brazil's Vinicius Jr. have voiced well-wishes for the icon. There was also a drone tribute in Doha that depicted Pelé's iconic No. 10 jersey and spelled out "Pelé get well soon, " according to FIFA. Pelé helped lead Brazil to three World Cup titles in 1958, 1962 and 1970.
However, the USWNT have stacks of quality in their side and will be looking to respond to their recent inconsistent form as well as their recent ousting from the world No. 1 spot by Germany, per The Equalizer's Jeff Kassouf:Jeff Kassouf @JeffKassoufGermany is the new No. 1 in FIFA women's world rankings. #USWNT had held position since March 2008. USA now No. 2. Jeff Kassouf @JeffKassoufFIFA rankings are arbitrary for the most part, but losing the No. 1 spot after 6 years is something the USWNT will take personally.

They certainly have goalscorers at their disposal, Christen Press fresh from scoring four against Argentina, added to by Carli Lloyd's hat-trick, her eighth, ninth and 10th goals in the last seven matches for the national side.
