Emiliano Martinez – 7
He had a night with little work and suddenly had to come to the rescue with three consecutive plays in 5′. He is a guarantee, a big team goalkeeper.
Nahuel Molina – 7
Better than against Canada, it was more similar to that of Qatar. He constantly went on the attack, without suffering any setback thanks to his enviable physical form.
Cristian Romero – 8 ★
Another outstanding performance from the best central marker of the moment. He already commands more than respect from his rivals. A beast. A star again.
Lisandro Martínez – 7
Convincing presentation by Lisandro. He anticipated, he passed the ball well, long deliveries with great precision. He gets along well with Cuti.
Nicolas Tagliafico – 6
He only started to suffer on his side when Nico González got tired. Always careful in attack.
Rodrigo De Paul – 7
From smallest to largest. He did not have as much contact with the ball, this time his role was not a leading one in possession. Given Messi’s muscular discomfort took charge of some rhythm changes and brought out his heart in the final quarter of an hour.
Enzo Fernandez – 6
His position was as an inside midfielder but stepping into the area often. He played an hour that helped him regain his rhythm of play. He complied.
Alexis Mac Allister – 7
He played as a 5, taking control of the middle from the 20’s. He made everything simple and well. Solid game by Alexis.
Nicolás González – 7
Sharp and insistent on the left wing. Bravo and the crossbar denied him the shout. He left very applauded.
Lionel Messi – 7
He scared us with a pain in his right adductor. After that he hit a tremendous left-footed shot against the post and tried to lead the attacks as always. Referee Matonte allowed them to go hard and out of time without sanctioning anything. On one leg the entire second half and before the goal the Olympian almost scored. Captain effort.
Julián Álvarez – 6
It’s hard to understand how he is able to run so much. In addition to pressuring and forcing the opponent’s error, he also has the energy to offer himself in each offensive play. He lacked a clear chance.
Giovani Lo Celso – 6
Being a player who plays controlled games, he struggled with the frenetic pace of the last 15′. Key in the goal playdoing the job of a pivot in handball.
Lautaro Martínez – 7
It seemed like another elusive night of the Bull until The rebound fell to him in the area and he did not forgive. Scorers are like that and you have to know how to take advantage of them.
Lautaro Martínez’s goal that gave Argentina the victory against Chile
Angel Di Maria – 7
He needed minutes to warm up his engines. He faced and proposed one-on-one every time the ball came to him. Without selfishness he assisted Lautaro on the counterattack at the end, but Bravo opposed the 2-0 score.
- Gonzalo Montiel and Marcos Acuña did not add up enough minutes to be evaluated.
Lionel Scaloni (DT) – 7
He chose to start with an intense and agile team. He deserved the difference in the first half but for the second consecutive game he was denied a goal before the break, rare for this team. The changes worked again. Classified, with Peru you will be able to rotate the most tired.
Don’t miss anything
