Argentina Matches Historic Record with Late Goals in World Cup

Argentina continues to write history in the 2026 World Cup, matching one of the most notable records in the tournament's history thanks to their offensive effectiveness in the final minutes of matches.

Opta statistics have confirmed that the Argentine national team scored 8 goals between the 76th and 90th minutes during their campaign in the 2026 World Cup, the highest tally recorded in that timeframe in a single edition of the tournament.

This figure matches the achievement of the Germany national team in the 1954 World Cup, making both teams the record holders for the most goals scored between the 76th and 90th minutes in a single World Cup edition.

This achievement reflects Argentina's ability to maintain its offensive threat until the final minutes, contributing to this historic record during the tournament.
