World Cup social media was alive and well during the first two matches of the day, but boy did things get cooking once Argentina collpased against Croatia. Here are our favorite tweets from today's action.
Denmark vs. Australia
Another game, another VAR penalty for the Aussies — giving the Socceroos a point against Christian Eriksen and the Danes.
Really dislike Kasper Schmeichel. 100% of his dad's personality, 70% of the talent.

France vs. Peru
Peru deserved better in this one as they fell to the French 1-0 despite outplaying Les Bleus for portions of the game. The internet was sad to see the Peruvians crash out of the tournament despite playing some exciting soccer.

Argentina vs. Croatia
The most anticipated match of the day turned into the most stunning as Croatia booked their trip to the Round of 16 with a 3-0 humiliation of Messi and company.
Just want this to be logged in the historical record of World Cup 2018:
