Argentina vs. Mexico
Result: Argentina 2 – 0 Mexico

Biggest Winners: Argentina and Australia
It’s a much needed win for both of these teams in their second group stage matches. Argentina needed this victory against Mexico to keep their World Cup hopes alive, while Australia’s win stretched their chances for the qualification in the knockout stage. Now, Australia and Argentina are just one win away for the knockout stage and to unravel their journey in this World Cup.
Biggest Loser: Saudi Arabia
This first Arab nation that ended the unbeaten streak of Argentina suffered a huge setback from the hands of Lewandowski and Poland. Saudi will face a much-needed victory over the struggling Mexico to take their cases for the qualification at the knockout stage still alive. Many also believe that the victory of Saudi Arabia was just a bit of luck.
Player of the Match: Kylian Mbappe
It was Mbappe who lifted France on the sixth day of the tournament. He scored twice and made the World Cup game against Mexico look like a training ground to him. He recorded a whopping three goals in two games this World Cup and he will likely add more in the upcoming games, especially in the knockout stage where they will be in an always do or die intensity, giving Mbappe and the Les Blues squad to step up big time on various important matches.
