    Argentina 2-2

    Jermaine Jenas

  18. Argentina 2-2

    SCRAMBLE!

    This is utterly breathless!

    Kingsley Coman beats a man on the byline and crosses low for Adrien Rabiot to fire on target. Emi Martinez saves, lets the ball get loose and then drops on it just before a French toe can make .
