#BinancePickAndWin Argentina, meanwhile, also needed extra time to edge past ten-man Switzerland, with Lionel Messi and company once again failing to hit top gear despite extending their remarkable winning streak. Both Cristian Romero and Leandro Paredes are expected to recover in time for the semi-final, providing a timely boost to Lionel Scaloni's side. Argentina have won each of their last ten matches, averaging 2.9 goals scored while conceding only 0.7 per game. However, their recent knockout performances have been far less convincing than those numbers suggest, with defensive discipline rather than attacking flair becoming the key to their success.
