Argentina Defeats England 2-1 in World Cup Semi-Final

In the FIFA World Cup semi-final on Wednesday, Argentina, led by head coach Lionel Scaloni, achieved a dramatic 2-1 comeback victory over England. The match began with England taking the lead through Anthony Gordon.

However, Argentina equalized with a long-range strike from Enzo Fernández, followed by Lautaro Martínez heading home a cross from Lionel Messi deep into stoppage time to seal the victory. Scaloni noted that he sensed a shift in momentum as England appeared to lose belief after scoring, stating that they became increasingly defensive and went backward rather than forward.

He expressed pride in his team's resilience and their commitment to giving everything until the end. Argentina will face Spain, the 2010 winners, in the final on Sunday, while England will compete against France for third place on Saturday.
