Live comments

  • 0' - The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Nigeria is hosting Argentina for another epic battle.
  • 5' - 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.
  • 10' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
  • 14' - Lionel Messi puts Argentina on the lead.
  • 19' - 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.
  • 24' - Brian Idowu has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 29' - 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 Franco Armani suffering a number of foals already.
  • 32' - Leon Balogun is having his name booked by the referee on 32.
  • 37' - The travelling Argentina supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 42' - Argentina 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.
  • 46' - Odion Ighalo has so much to prove this time. He replaces Kelechi Iheanacho on 46 minute.
  • 49' - That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Javier Mascherano.
  • 51' - What a strike from Victor Moses! The score is 1-1.
  • 56' - It’s high time Jorge Sampaoli made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.

  • 64' - Ever Banega was booked on 64.
  • 69' - Nigeria started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 69.
  • 72' - Time for substitution for Argentina. Angel di Maria is replaced by Maximiliano Meza.
  • 77' - While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 80' - The whistle greets Nicolas Tagliafico as he departs to be replaced by Sergio Aguero.
  • 85' - Argentina is showing some good football. However, Argentina are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
