What a day! It's been another action-packed matchday at the 2014 World Cup and you can head over to our daily tournament blog to digest the day's events. Switzerland stunned Ecuador with a dramatic come-from-behind victory in Brasilia before France downed Honduras in Porto Alegre. It was to be Messi's night at the Maracana though, as he set one up and scored another to get Argentina roling at Brazil 2014.

The final whistle sounds.
FULL TIME: It's all over at the Maracana and it's Argentina who emerge victorious. Kolasinac's unfortunate own goal opened the scoring before Messi ended his World Cup drought just after the hour mark. Ibisevic scored Bosnia and Herzegovina's first ever World Cup goal late on, but it wasn't quite enough as Sabella's men leave Rio with three points.

SIDE NETTING! Higuain finds space through the middle and plays Messi in. The No10 skips past the challenges and fires at goal, but it's just wide.
