Three teams with more or less hope are competing for second place behind the England national team, which is waiting for first place in Group D, and among them the Argentines obtained four important points in the rainy Saint-Etienne.
The winning man for Argentina was Emiliano Bovelli: the winger, who was named man of the match, scored his side’s first (and last) goal in the ninth minute, converting a penalty, then converting three spot-kicks, finishing with 16 in total. On the Samoan side, Sama Malolo took the ball into the end zone in the first half, but it was too late – and then the only thing missing was the six points that Christian Leiliifanu gave up in the first half due to two fouls. Penalties.
