Argentina terus melaju di Piala Dunia 2026 dan telah berhasil mengamankan tiket ke semifinal. Tapi dari tiga laga fase gugur, Tim Tango harus memeras keringat sampai babak extra time.

KANSAS CITY: Julian Alvarez scored a breathtaking goal as Argentina battled past 10-man Switzerland 3-1 after extra-time on Saturday, setting up a mouthwatering World Cup semifinal against bitter rivals England. Fans of the South American team dominated the stands in Kansas City and were celebrating as early as the 10th minute when their hero Lionel Messi set up Alexis Mac Allister’s opener. Switzerland levelled midway through the second half through Dan Ndoye but minutes later disaster struck when Embolo was sent off after picking up a second yellow card for simulation. The match went to extra-time and Switzerland snuffed out wave after wave of attacks until Alvarez curled a breathtaking strike into the top corner in the 112th minute. Lautaro Martinez added gloss with a late third. The hard-fought victory for Lionel Scaloni’s men at the Arrowhead Stadium means the top four teams in the FIFA rankings will contest the semifinals of the 2026 tournament. Argentina are now unbeaten in their past 12 World Cup matches as they attempt to become the first team since Brazil in 1962 to retain their World Cup crown. The South Americans swept through the group phase but struggled past minnows Cape Verde and needed a spectacular comeback against Egypt. Saturday’s game was another attritional affair against a Swiss team seeking to reach the World Cup semifinals for the first time. Argentina took the lead with their first effort on target when Liverpool midfielder Mac Allister rose between Djibril Sow and Embolo to glance a header into the far corner. Messi was the provider from a corner, taking his tally of assists across six World Cups to 10. He is also joint top of the Golden Boot standings with eight goals, level with French
