Here is what went down on Day 14 in Qatar.
The second Round of 16 clash saw Argentina hold on to beat Australia 2-1.
After the opening 45 minutes, Lionel Messi's magic proved to be the difference with Australia pinning Argentina’s movement back. But when the door opened, the No. 10 poked home from the top of the box for 1-0.
Coming out into the second half Argentina kept up with the pressure and a mistake from Australia goalkeeper Mathew Ryan allowed Julian Alvarez to double the lead.
And while Australia eventually turned things 2-1 through after forcing an Enzo Fernandez own-goal, it was too little too late, and they crash out.
The Netherlands secured its qualification for the quarter-finals after a 3-1 victory over the United States.
The first 45 minutes saw the Americans start off strong, but all the hard work was undone by two goals from the Dutch almost in identical fashion.
A lurking Memphis Depay made the most of a cut-back ball within 10 minutes before Daley Blind did the same to make things 2-0 at the break.
Coming out into the second half the U.S.’s pressure increased and shaky defending from the Netherlands saw Haji Wright turn things 2-1.
Yet the late push wasn’t enough when Denzel Dumfries ensured the Oranje move on after a third goal.
Following various transfer rumours, Canadian defender Alistair Johnston has officially signed a five-year deal with Scottish club Celtic.
