167 - Devdutt Padikkal's (@BCCI) 167 against Sri Lanka is the highest score of any player for India batting at No.3 in a men's Test away from home since Cheteshwar Pujara's 193 vs Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground in January 2019.
Proactive.

8 - Argentina have scored 8 goals in the 85th minute or later of their games at this @FIFAWorldCup, the most by any team at a single edition. Mettle.
0 - Lionel Scaloni is unbeaten in 10 all-time matches against UEFA opposition as manager of Argentina (W7 D3). Impeccable.

2 - Spain's Mikel Merino is just the second player to score multiple winning goals as a substitute at a @FIFAWorldCup (against Portugal and Belgium) after Roger Milla for Cameroon in 1990. Impact.
3000 - Enzo Fernández's winner in injury time for @Argentina against #Egypt was the 3000th goal in @FIFAWorldCup history. Occasion.

2013 e 1999 - Il #Messico non perdeva una partita ufficiale allo stadio Azteca dal 2013 contro l’Honduras (qualificazioni ai Mondiali 2014) e ha subito 3 gol in una sfida in questo impianto per la prima volta dall'agosto 1999 (vittoria per 4-3 contro il Brasile). Stregato.
1 - Cabo Verde became the first African nation to score more than one goal in a World Cup match against the defending champions.
They were also the second African nation to score 2+ goals in a WC match against Argentina, after Nigeria in 2014.
Audacity. 🦈
You showed the world who Cape Verde really is.
Thank you for everything. Forever proud. 🇨🇻💙

1 - Lisandro Martínez is the first Argentinian player other than Lionel Messi to score and assist in a single FIFA World Cup match for Argentina since Hernán Crespo and Carlos Tévez against Serbia in June 2006. Rare.

5 - There have been 5 different goalscorers for Switzerland in this FIFA World Cup, their joint-most in a single edition (also in 2014 & 2018). United.

1 - Folarin Balogun is the first player to score a goal and register a red card in a FIFA World Cup knockout game since Zinedine Zidane against Italy in the 2006 Final. Freakish.
#FIFAWorldCup
2 - At 17 years, 259 days old, Mexico’s Gilberto Mora became the second youngest player to start a knockout match at the FIFA World Cup behind only Pelé in 1958 (17 years and 239 days in first knockout appearance). Prodigy.
#FIFAWorldCup

3-0 vs Sweden
4-1 vs Norway
3-0 vs Iraq
3-1 vs Senegal
3-3 vs Argentina
Explosive.
2 - Paraguay have progressed from just their second ever FIFA World Cup knockout tie, with both coming via penalty shootout victories (also won 5-3 on penalties vs Japan in the 2010 round of 16). Perfect.
#FIFAWorldCup
4 - Bruno Guimarães is the first Brazilian to provide four assists in a FIFA World Cup edition since Zico in 1982; only Pele has more assists for Brazil in a single edition of the competition (6 in 1970). Service.
