Argentina are a goal-scoring machine at the FIFA World Cup, and this remarkable record proves it
Argentina are enjoying one of the best attacking runs in their FIFA World Cup history. La Albiceleste have scored in each of their last 14 World Cup matches, cementing their status as one of the tournament's deadliest teams.
Argentina's World Cup scoring streak continues
Argentina continue to write golden chapters in FIFA World Cup history, and one statistic perfectly reflects their attacking dominance: their ability to find the back of the net match after match.
Since their 3-0 defeat to Croatia in the group stage of the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, Argentina have scored in each of their last 14 World Cup matches, a testament to the attacking consistency they have maintained across two editions of the tournament.
La Albiceleste's attacking power
Argentina have scored at least two goals in each of their last 11 FIFA World Cup matches, matching the longest such streak in the history of the competition.
Until now, that record belonged exclusively to Uruguay, who scored two or more goals in 11 consecutive World Cup matches between the 1930 and 1954 editions. More than seven decades later, La Albiceleste have equaled that historic mark.
An attack with threats from everywhere
One of Argentina's greatest strengths has been the variety of their attacking options. While Lionel Messi remains the team's main reference point, the South American side have found goals from different areas of the pitch and from a wide range of players.
Forwards, midfielders and even defenders have all contributed during this remarkable run, highlighting a collective style of play that has made Argentina one of the most difficult teams to contain on the World Cup stage.
One step away from history
With the 2026 FIFA World Cup still underway, Argentina now have the opportunity to move ahead of Uruguay and become the team with the longest streak of consecutive World Cup matches scoring two or more goals in the tournament's history.
If they score at least twice again in their next match, La Albiceleste will set a new all-time record and confirm that they are enjoying one of the most dominant attacking spells ever seen at a FIFA World Cup.
