Messi Sets Unfortunate World Cup Penalty Record

Lionel Messi made World Cup history Tuesday by becoming the first player to miss two penalties in a single edition, despite Argentina's 3-2 comeback victory over Egypt. The Argentina star also became the tournament's all-time assists leader with his performance in the round of 16 match.

Despite his penalty miss, Messi contributed with a goal and an assist as Argentina overcame a 1-0 deficit to advance to the quarterfinals. They will now face the winner of Switzerland vs. Colombia on Saturday at Kansas City Stadium. capturengo.org
