In the framework of the round of 16 of the Qatar 2022 World Cup, Argentina did its thing and beat Australia 2-1, with goals from Lionel Messi and Julián Álvarez, making it to the quarterfinals where they will face Countries Bajos, who earlier beat the United States 3-1. They will meet again in world cups since 2014, when they had met in the semifinals.
Although the figure of the match was Lionel Messi, another of the highlights was in the middle of the field, where Rodrigo De Paul reappeared in all his splendor, the "little engine" of the team as his own teammates call him in the social networks. The midfielder had started this contest on the wrong foot, but as the games went by he began to settle in and feel better.
