So far, Argentina is trailing.

Details: Just moments ago, 39-year-old Lionel Messi failed to break the deadlock in the World Cup Round of 16 clash against Egypt, missing a penalty in the 19th minute.

The Argentine stepped up to the spot with a golden opportunity to put his team ahead, but couldn't get past Mostafa Shobeir, who read the shot perfectly.

The missed penalty became one of the key moments of the first half, adding even more intrigue to this knockout battle for a place in the World Cup quarterfinals.

For Leo, that's already his second missed penalty at this tournament.

Reminder: BREAKING! Argentina changes starting lineup for clash with Egypt!
