Messi's Late-Game Heroics Against Egypt

Lionel Messi orchestrated a stunning turnaround, leading Argentina from a 2-0 deficit to a 3-2 victory over Egypt. The forward scored and assisted within four minutes before Enzo Fernández headed home the match-winner in the 90th minute.

Despite missing a second consecutive penalty, Messi refused to let his team down. FC Barcelona legends Zlatan Ibrahimović and Thierry Henry observed that Messi makes the impossible seem expected. Henry noted that the player reminds the world he is human one moment and not human the next, while Ibrahimović described him as being "on a mission" to keep Argentina in the tournament. xsportfeed.quest
