The Argentines and The Socceroos meet at Ahmad bin Ali Stadium on Saturday, just three days after escaping their groups in dramatic fashion. Argentina vs Australia (ARG vs AUS) will be a must-win game for both sides as a loss will result in elimination for the losing team.
Argentina – The South Americans had a very rough start to their campaign, but somehow they came back and booked their place in the next stage by taking down both Poland and Mexico. Now they have another task to beat the Aussies to advance to the next stage.
Australia – The Socceroos defied expectations by finishing second in Group D behind defending champions France, albeit on goal difference, after winning two of their three games – against Tunisia and then Euro 2022 semi-finalists Denmark.
