Lionel Messi broke down with tears of joy after Argentina survived a major World Cup scare to advance to the quarter-finals.
The reigning champions looked set to be dumped out at the last 16 stage when they were trailing Egypt 2-0 with 12 minutes left in the second half.
However, in one of the great comebacks in World Cup history, they scored three goals in 13 minutes to stun Egypt and set up a quarter-final showdown with either Switzerland or Colombia on Sunday, 2am (BST).
And as Argentina celebrated at the full-time whistle, Messi cried tears of joy and relief that his World Cup would continue into the weekend.
