Argentina's talisman missed his chance from the penalty spot as Iceland goalkeeper Hannes Halldorsson saved to his right.

It earned the Scandinavian side a precious point on their World Cup debut, following a valiant defensive performance at the Spartak Stadium.

The result was made more impressive by the fact Heimir Hallgrimsson's side came from behind following Sergio Aguero's vicious opener.

Alfred Finnbogason equalised four minutes later, and his side held to claim a memorable result against the two-time champions. 

Argentina

Willy Caballero (GK) - 5.5 

Looked unconvincing when punching crosses. Spectator for most of the second half.

Eduardo Salvio - 6.5

Threatened with a couple of forays forward on the right.

Marcos Rojo - 5

First-half error almost proved very costly. Looked vulnerable all game.

Nicolas Otamendi - 5.5

Struggled to cope with Iceland's aerial threat from set plays.

Nicolas Tagliafico - 6

Almost scored with an early header. Most of Argentina's attack's came on the opposite wing.

Javier Mascherano - 7.5

Regularly switched the play with some excellent long-range passes.
