Alejo Sarco and Mateo Silvetti were also on target in a one-sided contest that underlined the South Americans\u2019 title credentials.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><em><strong>Fast Start from the Albiceleste<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n<p>Argentina needed just two minutes to break the deadlock when <strong>Alejo Sarco<\/strong> reacted quickest to a loose ball and slotted home from close range. The early goal unsettled Nigeria, who struggled to deal with Argentina\u2019s aggressive pressing and precise passing in midfield.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maher Carrizo<\/strong> doubled the advantage in the 23rd minute, curling a fine effort beyond the Nigerian goalkeeper to make it 2\u20130. The Flying Eagles tried to regroup, but Argentina continued to dictate play and went into the interval firmly in control.<\/p>\n<h3><em><strong>Carrizo and Silvetti Seal the Rout<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n<p>Carrizo grabbed his second goal shortly after the restart, finishing off a slick team move in the 53rd minute to effectively end the contest. Nigeria, unable to cope with Argentina\u2019s movement and composure, were punished again when substitute <strong>Mateo Silvetti<\/strong> added a fourth with a tidy strike in the 66th minute.<\/p>\n<p>Argentina\u2019s defence, marshalled superbly by captain <strong>Federico Redondo<\/strong>, held firm to record another clean sheet, while goalkeeper <strong>Federico Gomes Gerth<\/strong> was rarely troubled.<\/p>\n<h3><em><strong>Tactical Overview<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n<p>Head coach <strong>Javier Mascherano<\/strong>\u2019s side combined high pressing with fluid positional play, stretching Nigeria\u2019s back line and controlling possession with confidence. Carrizo\u2019s ability to drift between the lines proved decisive, while Argentina\u2019s midfield trio dominated territory throughout.<\/p>\n<p>Nigeria, who impressed in the group stages, were unable to replicate that form. Their transitions were too slow, and they struggled to create clear-cut chances against Argentina\u2019s compact structure.<\/p>\n<h3><em><strong>What It Means<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n<p>The result sends Argentina into the <strong>quarter-finals<\/strong>, where they will face the winner between <strong>Colombia and Japan<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>For <strong>Nigeria<\/strong>, it marks a disappointing end to a campaign that had promised much after a strong start.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Copyright\u00a92025 kick442.com-Cameroon<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>All rights reserved.
