Draw

Cape Verde

Match Preview

Argentina cruised through their group with nine points and just one goal conceded, sending a warning shot to their rivals heading into the knockout stages. With Lionel Messi already on six goals for the tournament, the South American giants will head into this clash as red-hot favourites, but they must take Cabo Verde seriously after an impressive debut tournament so far.

Cabo Verde were written off by most after they were drawn into a tricky Group H that contained reigning European champions Spain and South American giants Uruguay. However, going unbeaten through the group stage with three consecutive draws, Bubista's men have set up a David vs Goliath contest in the round of 32.
