Lautaro Martinez put Argentina into an early lead they would never surrender, with Giovani Lo Celso adding a second late on as the Albiceleste secure a semi-final date with Brazil on Tuesday in Belo Horizonte. Venezuela enjoyed the lion's share of possession, but Argentina remained stingy in defence as they book their place in the last four.
90' + 3' Venezuela will feel they maybe deserved a bit more today, given how they dominated possession and really limited Argentina's chances going forward, but the gap in quality proved to be the difference in the end as the Albiceleste were able to make the most of their few looks in attack.
