@Uchiahmasters, remember that the Third Raikage tanked the technique that had the most cutting power available, but his Hell Stab went straight through his armor. So his armor can tank a Rasenshuriken (that should cut him up on a cellular level), but his Hell Stab goes straight through his armour. I mean, if the Fourth can crack Susanoo, (albeit in a weaker form), I don't think it's too far a stretch to say that the Hell Stab would be able to pierce or at least weaken Susanoo, which would give Minato an opening to Rasengan the crack to open it up.

Also, I think you underestimate Minato's Body Flicker Prowess. He easily outpaced Hashi, and Hashi was apparently the only one who could 1v1 Madara. I think both Minato and the Third Raikage have enough speed and destructive power to kepp Madara back-pedaling, and that's when one of the others can land a solid blow.
