Enzo Fernández headed a stoppage-time winner as Argentina produced one of the great World Cup comebacks to beat Egypt 3-2 in Atlanta and reach the quarterfinals. The Chelsea midfielder snatched a thrilling win for the reigning champions in the second minute of added time after his side had trailed 2-0 in the 79th minute and looked to be crashing out. Yasser Ibrahim gave Egypt a shock half-time lead before Lionel Messi's penalty was saved by an inspired Shobeir. Mostafa Zico put the Pharaohs 2-0 up in the second period after his earlier effort had been ruled out by VAR. Cristian Romero's header threw Argentina a lifeline and after Lionel Messi smashed home an 83rd-minute equaliser, Fernandez completed a remarkable fightback with a lung-busting run into the box to head Lautaro Martinez's cross into the top corner and break Egyptian hearts. Messi's 83rd-minute strike was his eighth goal of the tournament and 21st at World Cups in total, the most of any player in history. Argentina advance to the quarterfinals to face the winner of Colombia vs Switzerland.
