Excellent ball to Messi, the chance for the second goal. Messi! Goal! Argentina, perfect play of Lionel Messi. 16 minutes of the second half and Messi scores his first goal of the tournament. A beautiful pass from Riquelme. Because they've got to be so dedicated in what they do. It may open up here for Argentina. It's Messi! Simply magnificent. And the whole of this stadium rises to 20-year-old Lionel Messi. Because that was a goal to save out of this world. Absolutely. Messi now. Higuaín! Argentina level through Gonzalo Higuaín.

It's that man Messi again. ...the other targets here. Ripped in. The spot falls at the six. At last at home. Falling to the ground, it's Rojo. But he brings up a huge goal for Argentina. One step towards the final. There's a little bit of a kisshead, I believe. Or may have just found its way through by marching foot. Either way. So using a substitute this early, not as lethal as it could be. Oh, he's in. Good ball for... Fabulous! Missed the pass. And the shot. And Argentina has doubled its lead. And this is where... Right here, that lovely ball inside. Played beautifully in from Zaballeta. Pastore says, I see it, man. So, Edu Vargas coming back. Hopefully, but only to Messi. Gets it back as he falls.

And it's a Messi! Bill Messi brings delight to Soldier Field. That is what the crowd demanded. Messi. Oh, no! It was well worth the wait, wasn't it? Bill Messi has just... Finding out a foot defence. And again, just a little slip. And all of a sudden, it's Messi who pounces again. Teases onto the left foot. Almost as if the script was written before the match began. Driven out here towards Messi. Messi's cross here towards Higuaín. With a chance! Inside eight minutes. Higuaín has Argentina in front. Made by Messi, of course. And Higuaín sweeps the ball home for the Albi Celeste. It is the perfect start to this quarterfinal for Gonzalo Higuaín on the score sheet. Argentina 1, Venice 1. Bonus Copa. Next one, Brazil in 2019. Higuaín here for Lionel Messi. Messi on for Nicolas Gaitan. For Messi! And Lionel Messi has now tied the record for full international goals for Argentina with Gabriel Batistuta. Number 54 from Lionel Messi. And that does dot the i's and cross the t's. Ball pulled back here for Messi. Shots on here! The ball has crept across the line. 4-1. And that glimmer is now put out by Eric Lamela. Hopes of the fight back extinguished. Almost Lamela's first touch since coming on. As he makes it 4-1 for Argentina. Asking a little too much there for Levetsi. Back in towards Levetsi! 1-0 Argentina! A moment of history. Messi. Oh! Absolutely astounding by Messi. And Messi is through here. Can he make it 4? Lovely ball. Well that's the definition of being unselfish. Argentina crown of finals. Messi to keep his cool, to step forward and to hammer it home.

Messi takes it quickly and sends Sergio Aguero on his way around the goalkeeper. Argentina lead 1-0. Well they ain't finished yet folks. Messi and Aguero they combine to give Argentina the lead. Arias Cortes again as he was in the semi-final. Goes short to Messi. Messi jinxed one way finds the cross. Back post he's headed across. Goal off the post and it's in. Argentina lead. It's Guido Rodriguez with the goal with only 12 minutes on the clock. This is his first game at the Copa America. Correa ducking his shoulders to drive it inside. Correa a little behind Messi clipping it up for Gomez. What a goal that is off the underside of the bar. Papu Gomez back to back games with a goal and as they have been doing consistently throughout this tournament Argentina... Messi makes no mistake into the bottom corner. 74th career goal for his country and Argentina have extended their lead.

Messi's second goal of the night 75th of his career and for the first time in his Copa America we're really starting to see Argentina flex. Messi releases Nicolás González González is through and if the goalkeeper has come a long way there's nothing given. Messi de Paul goal Argentina lead 5 minutes before the break Rodrigo de Paul gives Argentina a 1-0 lead here against Ecuador. It will surely end with a heavy touch almost caught on it and he is done.
