Copa America: Argentina beat Qatar to reach quarter-finals
Argentina have scraped into the last 8 of the 2019 Copa America after seeing off guest nation Qatar with 2 unanswered goals.
Lionel Scaloni's side who had been lambasted by Diego Maradona after pocketing just 1 point from their previous Group B encounters against Colombia and Paraguay, turned the tables early in the 4th minute when Inter Milan target-man Lautaro Martinez intercepted a defensive low-cross to roll the ball into the net from inside the box.
To ensure the victory, the sparkless Argentinians had to wait until the 82nd minute, all thanks to Sergio Aguero who started a mazy run from the middle of the pitch to beat the keeper with a surgical shot.
The Albiceleste will next play Venezuela in the last 8 on Friday.
