Sergio Aguero and Lautaro Martinez both scored as Argentina defeated Qatar 2-0 on Sunday, to qualify for the Copa America quarter-finals.
Lionel Messi and co came into their final group fixture, needing three points to advance from the group stage.
They were handed the perfect start, when a Qatari defender mistakenly passed the ball to Martinez at the top of the penalty area and the Inter Milan forward beat Saad Al-Sheeb to make it 1-0 inside of five minutes.
Argentina had another shocking miss in the second half, when Lionel Messi skied a wide-open shot from close range over the crossbar.
But Aguero finally gave his side some breathing room in the 82nd minute making it 2-0.
They will play Venezuela in the next round on June 28.
