A minute has been added to the ET and both sides are still goalless.

De Paul makes the run with the ball and finds Gonzalez. He connects, but Vargas makes the save and holds on to the ball.

Both sides ended up being goalless, and the summit clash will now head on to ET. It is surprising, since the semifinal and third-place matches went on to penalties. Only the Final has the provision of Extra Time. 

The Summit clash gets an added time of four minutes after the official time is over

Angel Di Maria and Nico Ginzalez attempted to go big but could not convert it into a goal as they failed to find the net. 

Argentina’s glee is short-lived after the goal was deemed an offside. Pressure mounts on.
