Live comments

  • 0' - In just a few seconds will turn into a battlefield for Nigeria and Argentina.
  • 5' - Nigeria seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 10' - Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 14' - Goal! Lionel Messi scores his 177 goal in 448 matches.
  • 19' - Brian Idowu has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 24' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Argentina that had 25 games and scored 44 goals.
  • 29' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Argentina needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 32' - The referee shows Nigeria player a Yellow card on 32.
  • 37' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 42' - The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Kelechi Iheanacho suffering a number of foals already.
  • 46' - Nigeria manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Odion Ighalo is hanging Kelechi Iheanacho on the field on 46 minute.
  • 49' - The referee calls foul for Javier Mascherano. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 51' - Goal! Victor Moses scores his 10 goal in 331 matches.
  • 56' - It looks like no one’s ball. Argentina is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 61' - The Argentina manager makes a substitution. Enzo Perez departs to be replaced by Cristian Pavon.
  • 64' - It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Ever Banega.
  • 69' - looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 72' - Maximiliano Meza has so much to prove this time. He replaces Angel di Maria on 72 minute.
  • 77' - The travelling Argentina supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 80' - The supporters are chanting for Sergio Aguero. He replaces Nicolas Tagliafico on 80 minute.
  • 85' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Kenneth Omeruo made 105 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 86' - What a strike from Marcos Rojo! The score is 1-2.
  • 90' - The referee shows Nigeria player a Yellow card on 90.
  • 90' - Another substitution for Nigeria to replace Kenneth Omeruo by Alex Iwobi on 90 minute.
  • The final score is 1-2.
