Messi's Argentina Look for a Calmer Night Against the Swiss

[WIZ001]

After dramatic 3-2 wins over Cape Verde and Egypt — the Egypt game seeing them trail 2-0 with 11 minutes left — Messi and Argentina will be hoping for a quieter night this time.  Argentina have an average squad age of 30 years, 173 days — the second-oldest side they've ever fielded at a World Cup. 
Switzerland are enjoying a historic run of their own: this is their first quarterfinal in over 70 years. They'll be hoping to replicate the pace and directness that hurt Argentina against Egypt, if Johan Manzambi can overcome a knee injury in time.
