00:09Seeming to have the right-back spot as the first choice here at this World Cup.
00:14One of a number of players from Atletico Madrid.
00:16In it comes to Lionel Messi.
00:17His control is brilliant.
00:18His finish is even better.
00:20It's sensational from Lionel Messi.
00:22And we would expect absolutely nothing less.
00:25Goal number 20 for the all-time leading scorer in the history of the World Cup.
00:30It's his seventh at the 2026 finals.
00:34Argentina 1, Tavo 30-0.
00:37Oh, what a goal.
00:38What a play from Argentina.
00:40That moment of turning up the pace.
00:42The directness of the ball.
00:44Superb ball.
00:45Here's Lissandro Martinez's ball from the back.
00:48Absolutely perfect.
00:50And Messi's touch and finish sublime.
00:57Starts at the back.
00:58You see Lissandro Martinez.
00:59What a ball this is.
01:00What vision.
01:01Messi's on his way really quickly.
01:04His touch and finish is brilliant.
01:07What a touch.
01:08The outside of his left foot.
01:10Then he just scabs at it.
01:12Gives the goalkeeper no chance.
01:14What a goal.
01:14That is Messi prime.
01:17We know it.
01:18We've seen it so many times before.
01:21But every time it is deeply impressive.
01:25He is absolutely lethal.
01:29Pinpoint brilliance from Argentina's number 10 yet again.
01:33Lissandro Martinez's ball is unbelievable.
01:36It really is.
01:37I mean the weight on it.
01:38The direction.
01:40The weight.
01:40Was world class.
01:42And of course.
01:43The finish.
01:44The touch and the finish.
01:45Was unbelievable.
01:48Slav Tumaro breaking it up.
01:50Then Argentina.
01:52Not keeping hold of the ball.
01:54Moreira.
01:58This is Mendes.
02:00In field he goes.
02:01That's the equaliser.
02:02A sensation in Miami at the World Cup.
02:05G-Roy Duarte.
02:15To say it's a shock for most of the people inside the stadium would be an understatement.
02:22Oh an excellent movement from Capo Verde.
02:25Down this right hand side.
02:27Ryan Mendes's ball.
02:28In between the legs of the Argentinian player.
02:31And the finish.
02:32Smashes it in the goal.
02:34From an acute angle.
02:36Emi Martinez didn't have time to react.
02:38Capo Verde are alive.
02:40And back in this game.
02:41The Cinderella story goes on here at this World Cup.
02:45And here is the moment where the World Champions were pegged back.
02:52D-Roy Duarte.
02:53What a finish.
02:54Ryan Mendes.
02:55Just perfect time pass.
02:57Really good touch from D-Roy Duarte.
02:59And then he picks his spot.
03:01Yes he gets fortunate.
03:02Between the legs of Lissandro Martinez.
03:05And Ami Martinez has no time to react.
03:10That is a brilliant goal from Capo Verde.
03:13And they cannot believe their luck.
03:19You can only imagine the scenes on the ten islands of Capo Verde at this moment in time.
03:31Messi's moment of magic cancelled out.
03:35Capo Verde.
03:36With half an hour to go.
03:38Are sensationally level against the World Champions.
03:51Certainly in Pico Lopez.
03:55When it comes right across the face of the goal.
03:57Danger still not cleared.
03:58Lissandro Martinez.
03:59Tees it up.
04:01And buries it.
04:05He played a big role in the first goal.
04:07And he scored the second.
04:10The World Champions ahead.
04:14Right at the start of extra time.
04:19What a finish.
04:21Unbelievable finish from your centre-half.
04:24Lissandro Martinez.
04:25What.
04:26Had plenty of time to pick his spot.
04:28And he absolutely nails it.
04:30Into that top corner.
04:32The senior.
04:33No chance.
04:34What a strike.
04:36And what an involvement he's had in this game.
04:48As the corner gets whipped in.
04:51The goal is to flicks it onto the fire post.
04:56Let's see.
04:57With Alvarez there.
04:58When he was on Solonat.
05:00Let's see.
05:00When once Lissandro Martinez gets the ball.
05:03Takes a touch.
05:04It just picks his spot.
05:05And absolutely drills it.
05:07Into that top corner.
05:09No chance for the goalkeeper.
05:11What a goal to get your team back in front.
05:14What a finish.
05:19Super strike from Lissandro Martinez.
05:22His second international goal.
05:26Pulled back with Jamiro Montero.
05:30Still having a reasonable share of the game Cabo Verde.
05:33Despite falling behind once more.
05:36Oh they've equalised.
05:39Sidney Lopez Cabral.
05:42And this team just will not lie down.
05:46What a moment.
05:47Take it in.
05:49This World Cup story is extraordinary.
05:53And it is not over yet.
05:56Wow.
05:58What a goal.
05:58That is going to be one of the goals of the tournament.
06:00He can't believe it himself.
06:02What a strike.
06:07Just recycling the ball back across.
06:10To him on the left hand side.
06:11Takes a touch inside.
06:12And what a finish.
06:17Strike on goal.
06:18Just gets better every time you watch it.
06:20This is a different angle.
06:22And that just was only going in one area.
06:25One spot in that top corner.
06:28Earl's golden moment.
06:31It's simply unforgettable.
06:35Meanwhile the first period of extra time has drawn to a close.
06:41He did well to find his loved ones.
06:44In the heat of the moment there.
06:46They knew exactly where they were.
06:50Messi's delivery is a good one.
06:53And it's the third goal for Argentina.
06:56Cristian Romero.
07:00This time Messi the provider.
07:04And it's an awful lot to ask Cabo Verde to come back yet again.
07:10It's an excellent ball into that near post area.
07:13Really good time.
07:14Floated ball.
07:15And it's Romero.
07:16I think gets the final touch.
07:18And it may be off one of the Cabo Verde defenders.
07:22It doesn't matter.
07:24He's in the back of the net.
07:25And Argentina once again.
07:28Have control of this game.
07:37Let's have a look here.
07:43It just deflects off one of the defenders.
07:45It's clearly Romero's head up.
07:47Yeah.
07:47It's off a hand as well, isn't it?
07:49So that is a really important head up.
07:53Great delivery in the box from Messi.
07:55Just in that danger zone.
07:57So difficult to defend against.
07:59Romero's shown a lot of intent.
08:01Fortunate with the deflection.
08:03I think that deflection takes it towards a goal.
08:06That's a huge moment for Argentina.
08:11Is that the decisive moment?
08:15On a night of unending twists and turns.
