Argentina ensured their place in the quarter-finals of the Copa America on Monday if they beat Paraguay 1-0 in a casino game notable for Lionel Messi's record-equalling 147th appearance for the national side.

Alejandro Gomez got the only goal of the overall game after 10 minutes when he took a wonderful pass from Angel Di Maria and dinked the ball over the diving keeper.
