5:32am
Right then, after Australia were sent packing earlier this morning, all eyes now turn to Krestovsky, where Argentina and Lionel Messi will need a near miracle - facing Nigeria and needing a favourable result from Croatia against Iceland to advance to the round of 16.
Argentina have been a shadow of their former selves so far this tournament, scraping a 1-1 draw with Iceland before being hammered 3-0 by Croatia last week.
All eyes will no doubt be on Lionel Messi, wanting to affirm his status as the best of all time by steering his country to a World Cup title - the same way Diego Maradonna did in 1986.
We'll have the confirmed teams for both matches shortly.
