Australia are gearing up for one of their biggest ever matches when they face Argentina in the last-16 of the World Cup. 

Mathew Leckie's second half strike was enough to see off an underwhelming Denmark side in Al-Wakrah, with Tunisia's victory over France having no impact on the Socceroos' progress to the knockouts.

By finishing second in their group, they face a huge challenge in Argentina to make the last-eight of the World Cup for the first time in the country's history.
