The 2022 World Cup group stage is almost over, but some groups have already defined their winners. Argentina took the first spot of Group C after defeating Poland 2-0, however, the Polish will also be in the Round of 16 after Mexico couldn’t get more goals in their win against Saudi Arabia (2-1).
The third round match was going to be key for Group C, as things were extremely tight between all countries. Poland, Argentina, Saudi Arabia and Mexico all wanted to get a win to secure their place in the Round of 16 without depending on others.
However, Poland couldn’t stop Argentina, who played their best game in the tournament so far. Either way, Czeslaw Michniewicz’s men will be playing in the World Cup knockouts. Check out what their current FIFA ranking is.
