Argentina Defeats Iraq 3-1 in Lyon

Argentina revived their Olympic men's soccer campaign with a 3-1 victory over Iraq in Lyon after a tumultuous opening loss to Morocco. Thiago Almada, Luciano Gondou, and Ignacio Fernandez scored for Argentina, who now share three points with Iraq and Morocco in Group B. Spain secured a spot in the quarterfinals with a 3-1 win over the Dominican Republic in Bordeaux, thanks to goals from Fermín Lopez, Alejandro Baena, and Miguel Gutierrez. The Dominican Republic's hopes were dashed after Edison Azcona received a red card. Spain's victory continues their strong run in Group C, making it two wins from two games. Other notable matches included hosts France, Israel, Japan, and the United States, who were set to play later on Saturday.
