Lucas Alario and Lucas Ocampos both made an impact with goals from the bench as Argentina completed a second-half fightback to earn a 2-2 draw against Germany at Signal Iduna Park.
The hosts took the lead when in-form Bayern Munich forward Serge Gnabry beat Agustin Marchesin with a deft finish after 15 minutes.
Highly-rated midfielder Kai Havertz doubled the advantage after an error from Manchester United defender Marcos Rojo, finishing from Gnabry's cross to give Germany a comfortable lead at the break.
Both sides were denied by the woodwork as Marcel Halstenberg's free-kick crashed against the bar before Rodrigo De Paul saw his long-range drive cannon back off the post.
Rojo was hauled off at half-time after a disappointing first-half display and the visitors looked stronger after the break.
The hosts paid the price for taking their foot off the gas in the second half when Alario, on as a substitute for the disappointing Paulo Dybala, headed home superbly from Marcos Acuna's cross.
The Albiceleste continue to press for an equaliser and got their reward when Alario turned provider, carrying the ball forward before laying off to Ocampos, whose effort deflected off Emre Can and past Marc-Andre ter Stegen in the Germany goal.
Germany XI: Ter Stegen; Stark, Sule, Koch; Klostermann, Kimmich, Rudy, Halstenberg; Gnabry, Brandt; Reus.
