Makes impact in win
Molina had one shot (zero on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 3-1 win against Switzerland.
Analysis: Molina registered one cross and two clearances across his 85 minutes in Saturday's 3-1 extra-time win over Switzerland before being replaced by Gonzalo Montiel, having his best moment early in the second half when a defence-piercing Lionel Messi pass sent him racing towards goal only for the right-back to drag his shot wide when a goal would have restored Argentina's lead before Dan Ndoye's equalizer arrived. The right-back's ability to time forward runs and get in behind opposition defensive lines remains one of Argentina's most important attacking dimensions.
Creates two chances
Molina generated one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Tuesday's 3-2 victory over Egypt.
Analysis: Molina registered two chances created, one cross and three tackles across his 73 minutes in Tuesday's 3-2 win over Egypt before being replaced by Gonzalo Montiel with his side still 0-2 down, contributing to Argentina's attacking pressure in the first half without being on the pitch to witness the three-goal comeback that followed his withdrawal. The right-back's ability to arrive into dangerous areas and deliver quality crosses into the box remains one of Argentina's key attacking weapons, and his availability heading into the Switzerland quarterfinal will give manager Lionel Scaloni options at right-back after Montiel's decisive impact as his replacement.
