For the second date of Zone A of the America Cupthe Argentine national team jumped onto the MetLife Stadium playing field to face his pair of Chili. At the end of the 45 minutes, neither team managed to break the zero on the scoreboard. One of them didn’t even try.
Lionel Scaloni’s team, current champion of the competition after lifting the trophy in the Brazil 2021 edition, was largely dominant in the first stage. In total he had 13 total shots and three of them on goal. One of these, which came from Lionel Messi’s left-footed boot, hit the post.
For your part Chili, who came to this match after a goalless draw in their debut against Peru (which on the second round lost to Canada by the slightest difference) was a shadow of the Argentine National Team. Emiliano Martínez was a true luxury spectator.
With Alexis Sánchez, Víctor Dávila, Darío Osorio and Eduardo Vargas as attacking men, La Roja did not have any shots on goal. Not even a corner, to add to the statistics. Without a doubt, Ricardo Gareca, coach of the Chilean cast, will seek to reverse the pale image shown in the first stage. To see action, Dibu had to wait for 70 minutes, when Rodrigo Echeverría finished from the edge of the area.
For its part, the Argentine national team They will seek to refine their aim to also capture their superiority on the scoreboard. If Scaloni’s team manages to add three, his team will secure their place in the quarterfinals of the competition.
