Lionel Messi Helps Lead Argentina into the FIFA World Cup Quarterfinals in Historic Fashion

Posted on by

2026 FIFA World CupLionel Messi continues making history while leading his team onward at the FIFA World Cup.

The 39-year-old Argentine professional footballer scored in a record sixth straight World Cup knockout match to help Argentina reach the quarterfinals with a stunning late comeback to beat Egypt 3-2 on Tuesday in Atlanta.

Lionel MessiEgypt were leading the defending champions 2-0 heading into the closing stages before Messi provided an assist for Cristian Romero in the 79th minute and a goal of his own four minutes later to tie the score.

Just when it seemed that extra time was in the cards, Enzo Fernández headed into the net in the second minute of stoppage time to complete a remarkable turnaround at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

It was the first time in World Cup history that a team had won a knockout match in regulation time after trailing by two goals in the 75th minute.

“This is a phenomenal group that never gives up,” Fernández said. “Four years have passed since Qatar, and we’ve come to enjoy another World Cup — and we want to win it again. That’s what we’re aiming for.”

Argentina, who are bidding to become the first back-to-back World Cup champions since Brazil in 1958 and 1962, will face Switzerland in the quarterfinals in Kansas City, Missouri, on Saturday.

“I’m so emotional,” Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni said. “What a group of players, brother.”

Egypt looked set to produce a stunning upset after Yasser Ibrahim‘s 15th-minute goal was added to by Mostafa Zico‘s close-range strike on the counterattack in the 67th minute. The record seven-time African champions, who made history by advancing to the round of 16 for the first time, also had a goal ruled out following video review.

Messi missed a chance to equalize in the first half when his penalty was saved by Egypt goalkeeper Mostafa Shobeir. Messi also hit the post when the score was 1-0.

But he delivered the goods once again late. Messi has scored in a record nine consecutive World Cup matches dating to Argentina’s title run in 2022. Tuesday’s goal marked his 13th in that span.

“Honestly, I’m just so happy we made it through and about the way we did it,” Messi said. “Things got tough at 2-0, so it was incredibly exciting to turn it around once again. We suffered a lot, but that’s the World Cup for you: Every match is playing out the same way; everything is so evenly matched.

“But as always, this group never gives up and keeps trying until the very end.”

Messi’s eight goals at this tournament put him one clear of France‘s Kylian Mbappé and Norway‘s Erling Haaland in the race for the Golden Boot.

His goal also gave Messi a two-goal lead over Mbappé on the World Cup career leaderboard.

“Seeing him get emotional was moving too,” teammate Lautaro Martínez said of Messi’s reaction at full time. “I told him right there on the pitch to enjoy the moment because he deserved it and that we would keep giving our all for ourselves — but above all for him, since this is his last World Cup and he has given us so much.”

For much of the game, it looked as if it would be a painful exit for 39-year-old Messi in his sixth and perhaps final World Cup.

Egypt took a surprising lead in the 15th minute when Ibrahim got ahead of Lisandro Martínez to meet Marwan Attia‘s cross and head the ball into the bottom corner.

Argentina were quickly given the chance to level the match when Haissem Hassan tripped Nicolás Tagliafico in the box moments later. Referee François Letexier pointed to the penalty spot, and Messi stepped up with an expectant crowd waiting for him to score.

Shobeir had other ideas, diving to his left to block the shot for Messi’s second penalty miss of the 2026 tournament after also failing from the spot against Austria in the group stage.

Despite being the leading career scorer at World Cups, Messi has missed a record four of his eight penalty kicks at the tournament through the years.

After Messi hit the post later in the half, Shobeir pulled off another great save to stop Julián Álvarez from close range.

Egypt thought they had doubled their 1-0 lead in the second half when Zico finished off a sweeping attack. But the wild celebrations were cut short when a foul earlier in the move was confirmed on video review and the goal was disallowed.

The second goal for Egypt came in the 67th from a similar break, and this time Zico’s effort counted. It just ended up not being enough.

Mikel Merino Helps Propel Spain into the FIFA World Cup Quarterfinals

2026 FIFA World CupMikel Merino has helped propel Spain into the FIFA World Cup quarterfinals for the first time since the European nation won the global tournament in 2010.

The 30-year-old Spanish professional footballer scored a late goal on Monday to send Spain past Portugal 1-0 in the round of 16.

Mikel MerinoWith the game looking like it was headed to extra time in Arlington, Texas, Ferran Torres‘ through ball led Merino into the penalty area, and he sent a shot past Diogo Costa for the winner as Spain topped their neighbors on the Iberian Peninsula.

Merino had just been knocked down, and a foul was called. While a Portugal player argued, Merino played the ball back in, ran toward the goal and put a shot past goalkeeper Costa after taking a pass from Torres.

There were some anxious moments down the stretch for Luis de la Fuente‘s side as Portugal twice came close to levelling the score, but the 2024 European Champions clung to their lead to eliminate Portugal and Cristiano Ronaldo, who said Monday that this will be his last World Cup.

“Mikel Merino never lets you down. He’s a sure thing. He won us the Euros,” de la Fuente said after the game. “He’s a huge player — one of the best in the world in his position. We’re lucky to have players on the bench who would be starters in any other national team. The important thing is the attitude when they come on, and in the day to day.

“All I ask is for people to be fair in their recognition. Mikel Merino is a player with exceptional performance. He’s a player who is always where he needs to be.”

Spain will battle Belgium in the quarterfinals at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California.

“You remember everything, all the good, all the bad, what you’ve got back at home,” Merino said after the game. “There’ve been very difficult moments for me this year, but good ones as well. With the injury, all this time that I haven’t been able to see my little one [newborn baby] grow up.

“I use it to get the best of myself.”

It was the sixth consecutive clean sheet for Spain at the World Cup, a tournament record, and goalkeeper Unai Simón extended his record shutout streak to 609 minutes.

Spain broke a tie with Italy (1990) and Switzerland (2006-10) for the most consecutive World Cup matches not allowing a goal. Spain’s streak began with a 0-0 draw in the round of 16 in 2022, when Morocco advanced after a penalty shootout.

There was also a surprising scoreless draw against Cape Verde to open group play in this tournament, followed by four consecutive shutout victories to advance to the quarterfinals.

Simón surpassed the previous record of 517 consecutive scoreless minutes during a 3-0 blanking of Austria to open the knockout round Thursday. Famed Italy goalkeeper Walter Zenga set the standard in 1990 with five consecutive clean sheets in his home World Cup.

Simón’s shutout streak started in 2022 in Qatar during a 2-1 loss to Japan to wrap up group play.

He came into the Portugal game having made only four saves in this World Cup – Austria had no shots on target – and on Monday, Simón had to make two saves in the first half against Portugal.

The second of those saves was an impressive diving stop, when he was still in midair after reaching back to grab the ball with both hands. Ronaldo took that shot after teammate José Sá’s header went off the shoulder of the 29-year-old Athletic Bilbao keeper.

John Herrera Among Late Broadway Stars Being Honored with Group Marquee Dimming

John Herrera will be honored across The Great White Way next week.

The late Cuban Broadway star is among the late members of the Broadway community who will be honored with a group marquee dimming on Tuesday, June 9.

John HerreraDuring the dimming, considered among the most prestigious honors the industry bestows, the marquees for all 41 Broadway theatres will be dimmed simultaneously at 6:45 PM ET for one minute in honor of Herrera, Robert Fox, David Gersten, Allan Gruet, Jennifer Harmon, Mary Beth Hurt, Jeffrey Lane and Sondra Lee.

Last year, the Broadway in Memoriam Committee announced the establishment of the quarterly tradition dedicated to honoring “the remarkable individuals who have left an indelible mark on Broadway.”

Herrera, who passed away earlier this year at the age of 70, came to New York in the late 1970s, making his Broadway debut in the original production of Grease as a cover for all of the male principals including Danny Zuko.

His warm singing voice quickly charmed the industry at large, leading him to become a beloved replacement leading man for several decades, including stints covering Che in the original Broadway run of Evita, Dap in Camelot with Richard Burton, John Blackthorne in Shogun, The Musical, and John Adams and John Hancock in 1776.

His best-known Broadway performance, however, had him firmly positioned at center stage.

Herrera originated the role of Victor Grinstead/Neville Landless in Rupert Holmes’ The Mystery of Edwin Drood in 1985, immortalizing his recognizable baritenor as the layered music hall company member. As a Latine man playing a British man playing a Sri Lankan man of mystery, Mr. Herrera navigated the complexity with panache, netting a Tony nomination for Best Featured Actor in a Musical.

Following Drood, Herrera continued to take on psychologically layered performances as a member of the original Broadway company of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and the Broadway revival of The Threepenny Opera.

In 2002, he reached perhaps the zenith of such musical theatre complexity as the understudy for Brian Stokes Mitchell as Don Quixote (Cervantes) in Man of La Mancha.

His final Broadway performance came in 2006, as a swing for The Times They Are A-Changin’. 

Off-Broadway, Herrera originated the role of Kevin Rosario, Nina’s entrepreneurial immigrant father, in Lin-Manuel Miranda‘s In The Heights.

The group dimmings take place four times a year on the second Tuesday in September, December, March and June, offering a moment of reflection and gratitude for the legacies of those who have shaped the theatrical world.

Anitta is looking to expand her global reach and impact with new representation…

The 32-year-old Brazilian singer, songwriter, dancer and actress has signed with William Morris Endeavor (WME) for representation in all areas.

AnittaAnitta is hoping WME will help her expand her presence across, television and unscripted.

The agency will at the same time look to help Anitta scale her global brand in fashion, beauty, partnerships and the creator economy, with Senior Partner Brad Slater running point for the artist.

“There is a reason Anitta is undoubtedly one of the greatest performers in the world today,” Slater told Deadline. “She is the definition of what a global superstar looks like: an ever-growing multicultural fan base, multi-lingual, and most importantly has a burning motivation to continue building her career. We look forward to expanding her presence across every facet of the entertainment industry.”

Born Larissa de Macedo Machado, Anitta is considered to be one of the most globally successful Latin pop artists of her generation.

She first broke out with a number of funk carioca–infused hits in the early 2010s, becoming a household name in Brazil following the release of her 2013 single “Show das Poderosas.”

After rising to stardom in her home country, she expanded her footprint internationally over the course of a number of years, through collaborations in Portuguese, Spanish and English with a wide array of global acts, including J Balvin, Maluma, Cardi B and Madonna.

In 2022, Anitta released her album Versions of Me — featuring songs in Portuguese, Spanish and English — with her single “Envolver” making history as the biggest debut ever by a Latin artist on the Spotify Global Chart. The single shattered a record she’d previously set as it reached #1 on iTunes in 19 countries and earned her recognition from the Guinness World Records for the second time.

Anitta’s Versions of Me has now surpassed 1 billion streams on Spotify.

In 2022, she also won the MTV Video Music Award for Best Latin with “Envolver,” becoming the first Brazilian solo artist to receive the honor. Additionally, she was nominated for Best New Artist at the 65th annual Grammy Awards.

Most recently, Anitta released “Bellakeo” with Peso Pluma, which became her highest-charting song on the Billboard Hot 100, and later released Funk Generation, earning her second Grammy nomination for Best Latin Pop Album at the 67th Grammys.

She’s a leading presence at Brazil’s world-renowned Carnival, where she returns as a headliner this year.
