Angel Di Maria's extra-time winner carried Argentina into the World Cup quarter-finals after an unconvincing display against Switzerland.
The two-time champions dominated possession in a turgid last-16 tie, but were unable to break through until Di Maria swept in Lionel Messi's pass.
Switzerland defender Blerim Dzemali headed against the Argentina post then prodded wide after Di Maria's winner.
Argentina will now face Belgium or the USA in the last eight on Saturday.
