In the end, the Moroccans managed to hold on, and they got what few thought was possible – a win.
This resulted in another match against Iraq becoming a sort of a ‘do or die affair’ for Argentina. Consequently, to meet the challenge, the team won with a 3:1 score, Alvarez also produced two great assists and demonstrated leadership.
