Defending champions Argentina completed a flawless Group J campaign with a 3-1 victory over Jordan in Dallas, securing three wins from three matches to advance confidently to the FIFA World Cup Round of 32. Giovani Lo Celso and Lautaro Martínez gave Argentina an early two-goal lead before Jordan's Mousa Al Tamari pulled one back. Coming off the bench, Lionel Messi sealed the win with a trademark free-kick, becoming the first player ever to score in seven consecutive FIFA World Cup matches. Argentina will now face Cape Verde in the knockout stage, while Jordan exits after its debut World Cup campaign. (PC: Reuters)
