Argentina vs. Cape Verde live: This is what it looks like in the World Cup game

It will also be a home game for superstar Lionel Messi. The eight-time world footballer from Inter Miami took it easy recently, but still scored his sixth World Cup goal. Led by the 39-year-old captain Argentina want to quickly make it clear who is the world champion on the pitch and who is the blatant outsider. One out against Cape Verde (00:00/live ORF) would be fatal.

It is the biggest game in Cape Verde’s football history. In its first World Cup participation, the small island state reached the knockout rounds – and will now face the defending champions there. Two former world champions, Spain (0-0) and Uruguay (2-2), have already cut their teeth on the “Blue Sharks”.
