Lionel Messi saved Argentina again last night with a stunning goal to break the deadlock against Mexico. They’re back in contention, but can they go all the way?

 

Tim Vickery is far from sure, but the arrival of Enzo Fernandez in their midfield gives them a chance.

 

Plus there’s misguided vox pops, Eoin’s favourite dressing-room moment of the World Cup so far, and a short audio history of Argentinian post-match celebrations.
