World Cup round-up: Argentina leaves it late but joins Croatia in last 16

Another round-up from the World Cup in Russia as Argentina leave it late to reach the last 16, and Iceland goes home with heads held high despite losing to Croatia in their final group match.  

If we are to believe news reports, and the Argentina players had wrested control away from the coach Jorge Sampaoli, then can someone explain why they waited until the 80th minute to put Sergio Aguero onto the pitch in a game they needed to win and were drawing 1-1.

Evidently, the Manchester City striker’s only role is to bring the dressing room mixtape.

Argentina, made the knockout stages of the 2018 World Cup by the skin of their teeth, after a late win against Nigeria in St Petersburg last night.
