In the first half-hour, Croatia showed promise, but Alvarez was fouled by the Croatian goalkeeper, leading to Messi converting a penalty to put Argentina ahead. Messi and Alvarez combined beautifully for the second goal, with Alvarez scoring his fourth goal of the tournament. Alvarez then added another goal by breaking through Croatia's defense on a counter-attack. Messi came close to scoring a second goal but ultimately set up Alvarez for his second of the match. Argentina will face the winner of the Morocco vs. France semifinal in the final match of the tournament.
