Everything You Need to Know About Day 13 of the World Cup

Argentina scraped through to the last 16 at the 2018 FIFA World Cup on Day 13 as they beat Nigeria 2-1 at Saint Petersburg Stadium in Group D.

Croatia topped the group as they continued their perfect record with a 2-1 defeat of Iceland.

The tournament came to an end for Peru and Australia on Tuesday as Los Incas beat the Socceroos 2-0 in what turned out to be a dead rubber.   

France and Denmark needed only to draw to ensure they both advanced from Group C, and they played out a drab 0-0 in Moscow. 

Here are the final standings:

Group C (Games played, goal difference, points)

1. France: 3, 2, 7

2. Argentina: 3, -2, 4

3. Nigeria: 3, -1, 3

4. Iceland: 3, -3, 1 

Australia vs. Peru

Peru finally got the win they deserved from this tournament as they secured a first World Cup victory since 1978 against Australia.

The Aussies knew they had to claim a victory in an attempt to advance to the knockout rounds and they were open as a result.

Peru took advantage as they opened the scoring in the 18th minute through Andre Carrillo, who smashed home a brilliant volley from 15 yards.

Skipper Paolo Guerrero then doubled the South American side's lead in the 50th minute to ensure Peru head home with a win. 

Denmark vs. France

Almost from kick-off, Denmark's clash with France looked destined to be the first goalless draw of the tournament.

Both sides lacked any real intensity in attack, and Antoine Griezmann and Olivier Giroud were like strangers up top for Les Bleus, per Opta:

The Atletico Madrid man was replaced by Nabil Fekir midway through the second half and the 24-year-old tried to bring some flair to a disappointing spectacle.

But eventually, both sides settled for the draw, which saw France head through as group winners and Denmark in second place. 

Iceland vs. Croatia

Croatia have looked like one of the best teams at the tournament so far and earned a third win from three as they downed Iceland in Rostov-on-Don to knock the Nordic outfit out the tournament.

Iceland had to win to stand a chance of advancing but went behind to an impressive Milan Badelj strike soon after the break.

A Gylfi Sigurdsson penalty kept Iceland's hopes of advancing alive, but then Ivan Perisic netted in stoppage time to seal another victory for Croatia.

Zlatko Dalic's side will now face Denmark in the last 16 and will be strong favourites to advance to the quarter-finals.

Nigeria vs. Argentina

In the most entertaining clash of the day, Argentina were saved the embarrassment of a group-stage exit by a stunning side-foot volley from Marcos Rojo in the 86th minute.

Lionel Messi had opened the scoring early on for La Albiceleste as he finished brilliantly across the goalkeeper after a fine ball from Ever Banega. 

But Nigeria came out flying in the second half and soon equalised through a Victor Moses penalty.

A draw would have been enough to put the Super Eagles through in Argentina's place but Rojo then scored brilliantly from 12 yards to put his side through to face France.
