Tears of relief? Messi adds another incredible chapter to World Cup career

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).

Egypt manager Hossam Hassan has furiously accused FIFA of rigging the World Cup after a string of controversial refereeing decisions went against his side during Argentina's dramatic late comeback in Atlanta on Tuesday. Argentina‚ who were 2-0 down with 12 minutes to play plus stoppage time‚ looked destined to exit the tournament before late goals from Cristian Romero‚ Lionel Messi and Enzo Fernandez resulted in a remarkable 3-2 comeback victory. As Fernandez's game-winning header rippled the net in the 93rd minute‚ chaos broke out on the touchline as Egypt's furious staff remonstrated with referee Francois Letexier‚ leading to goalkeeper coach Saafan El-Sagheer being shown a red card and manager Hassan being dragged away from a confrontation with the official.
