Yesterday match who won

Lionel Messi's last chance to win the World Cup is still alive after Argentina won 2-1 in the first knockout game against Australia to set up a quarterfinal date with the Netherlands Friday at 2 p.m. ET. Lionel Scaloni's team won with a convincing performance against the Socceroos, despite some late wobbles against one of the surprises of the tournament so far. The start of the match wasn't as easy might have been expected. Argentina and Australia were both defensive and careful to not concede the opening goal. It was Leo Messi's magic left foot that was needed to open the scoring in such a game and that happened after thirty-five minutes as the Argentinian star scored with the first shot of the game. MESSI MAGIC ✨🇦🇷 That's the first knockout stage goal in Messi's FIFA World Cup career Incredibly enough, that was Leo Messi's first goal during a World Cup knockout game, in the 1000th match of his career. With this goal, his ninth in the World Cup overall, he surpassed Diego Maradona's eight as the top scorer for Argentina at the World Cup and is only behind Gabriel Batistuta (10). The second half started with an unexpected change a few minutes after the game restarted with Argentina's coach Scaloni replacing striker Alejandro 'Papu' Gomez with defender Lisandro Martinez. Argentina started to play with a three-back defense and definitely played better soccer in the second half creating way more chances. It was Julian Alvarez who scored the second goal of the match after the ...

“It’s everything,” Golf Canada CEO Laurence Applebaum said of what Taylor’s win means for Canadian golf. “It’s that other bookend to (Brooke Henderson’s CPKC Women’s Open) win. Brooke and Nick Taylor are going to be connected together now, having Canadian Open wins together over the last five years. It’s a moment we’ve been waiting for (for) so long. Applebaum was on the receiving end of the LinkedIn message from Klein when the club – which celebrates its centennial in 1926 and is hoping to have the RBC Canadian Open again – decided it wanted to try to bring the PGA TOUR there. It became the 37th venue in the 117-year tournament history when the balls hit the air Thursday morning. “Definitely taking nothing away from Mike Weir’s 2003 Masters victory here, but this is right up there with the greatest Canadian golf accomplishments. Brooke Henderson winning in Regina, yes. But honestly it’s up there, truly, with some of the greatest accomplishments in Canadian athlete history,” Adam Hadwin said. They were in the locker room peeking at the coverage on the TV with Taylor’s brother, Josh, as Tommy Fleetwood finished at 17 under, tied with Taylor in regulation. The TOUR winners had all changed into leisurewear – Hadwin and Conners were waiting on the charter to the U.S. Open. Beers were cold and open, from Sleeman – a brewery in Guelph, Ontario. They weren’t going to miss this one. “I think it's a tournament that we've circled on our calendar since probably junior golf. But ever ...

It was Alcaraz, 20, not Djokovic, 36, who had youth on his side, of course, the widest gap between Grand Slam semifinalists since 1991. It was Alcaraz, not Djokovic, who complained to his coach in the early going on an 85-degree afternoon in Court Philippe Chatrier that the points weren’t long enough to wear down his opponent. And yet it was Alcaraz, not Djokovic, who succumbed to the heat and the intensity and, by his own admission, the nerves of the occasion. It was Alcaraz, not Djokovic, whose body broke down. And so it is the No. 3 seed Djokovic, not No. 1 Alcaraz, who will play on in Paris with a chance to add to his trophy collection. Using every bit of his superiority in experience and fitness, Djokovic beat a cramping Alcaraz 6-3, 5-7, 6-1, 6-1 to reach his 34th major final. That allowed Djokovic to move closer to a 23rd Grand Slam championship, which would break a tie with rival Rafael Nadal for the men’s record. “I can understand the emotions and circumstances that affect you mentally and emotionally. ... Maybe for the first time in his career, he was expected to win,” Djokovic said. “It’s a part of the learning curve.” Score one for the old guys. “I’ve never felt the tension that I did in that match,” said Alcaraz, w...
