Held by Iceland and humiliated by Croatia, Argentina's World Cup could already have been all but over, but Lionel Messi and the rest of Jorge Sampaoli's troubled squad have one final shot at redemption against Nigeria on Tuesday.

However, bouncing back will take a huge improvement in performance and strength of character so far unseen from the two-time world champions in Russia. (Video: SNTV).
