Match Report
Argentina took the lead in the 10th minute. Messi swung a cross in from a corner, Mac Allister met it at the near post and headed it low to the bottom right. 1-0.
Embollo picked up a yellow in the 44th — rough challenge, nothing too dramatic at the time.
Switzerland equalized in the 67th against the run of play. Ricardo Rodríguez played Ndoye in down the left. Tight angle, difficult shot — Ndoye fired it across goal anyway and it went in. 1-1.
Five minutes later, Embolo earned his second yellow and walked. Switzerland down to 10 men with more than 20 minutes left in regulation.
1-1 at full time. Argentina had the man advantage but couldn't force it.
Extra time. In the 112th, Julián Álvarez received a pass from López and hit it from outside the box — right foot, top right corner. A proper finish. Then in the first minute of added ET time, Lautaro came through on a fast break and slotted it into the bottom right. Done.
Argentina 3-1 in extra time. Semifinals.
