Video: Lionel Messi’s power-packed spot kick beats Croatia keeper

Video shows Argentina’s Alvarez speeding ahead with the ball in the 34th minute after getting a lofted pass over the Croatian defence. He puts the ball past the advancing goalkeeper but is brought down. Italian referee Daniele Orsato had not hesitation in awarding a penalty kick.

Messi’s impeccable drive goes home high into the net, giving Livakovic no chance of getting to the ball even though he correctly guessed the direction in which the shot was coming.
