The Argentina team beat Chile 1-0 at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, for the second day of Group A of the Copa América. From the previous one, the bad news for Ricardo Gareca, coach of La Roja, was that he could not count on Diego Valdés, one of the figures of América de México and undisputed starter. I know the reasons.

Why did Diego Valdés not play in Chile vs. the Argentine National Team, for the Copa América

The left winger tore the soleus in his left leg in the first half of his debut against Peru, and had to be replaced at halftime by Darío Osorioone of the most promising players of the Argentine national team who was there from the start against the Albiceleste.

Due to the injury, it is estimated that he will also be out for the duel against Canada., corresponding to the third date. He could only return in a hypothetical quarterfinal match, although it remains to be seen if Chile will qualify for that stage.
