Argentina being the favorite are expected to win against Australia. Argentina are not invincible. Saudi Arabia had beaten them 2-1. Will Argentina be beaten once again by Australia?.
I would not discount the possibility that Australia may win or hold them to a tie.
I think Australia may caused an upset with these scores a: 2-1, 3-2 and 2-2.
Argentina likely winning scores 3-1, 3-2, 4-2.

Things are a lot more straightforward in the Round of 16 as there are no ties. Games must have a winner, which means there is extra time then penalty kicks as ways to conclude matches, if necessary. Once the we are left with 16 teams, the World Cup becomes a single elimination tournament.

The golden goal rule is not in effect, so if a team scores, it’s not the game winner. The game continues though all 30 minutes of extra time, whether or not goals are scored.
If it’s still a draw after the 30 minutes of extra time, both teams will take penalty kicks. The penalty kicks are a best of five shootout, alternating between the team two teams. The shootout ends when one team is no longer mathematically able to match the other’s team results.
If there’s still a tie at the end of the shootout, additional rounds of one kick each will be added until the tie is broken, which is also known as sudden death.

Alright! J. Maclaren is finally coming in as subs for M.Duke. Let's see whether he and C.Goodwin can save Australia by scoring a goal each.

Match ended. FT score : 2-1 Argentiba. Should hv let Macleren play from the start instead of as subs in last 10 mins. of 2nd half. Match may end differently.

That last chance was so close in dying seconds.

Argentina almost suffered another upset in the last min of injury time had the ball not hit the outstretched hand of the Argentina GK. It cld have been 2-2. Closed shave for Argentina. Today may see Engkok next upset casualty.
