Recall Julian Alvarez opened the scoring in the 49th minute before Lautaro Martinez netted the second goal in the 88th minute to give Argentina the maximum points.

However, in a chat with Gaston Edul, Scaloni stated that the venue was unsuitable for this level of competition.
“We have known for 7 months that we are going to play here, and they changed the grass two days ago.
“We didn’t play on a decent court.” It was similar to Arabia, but with the difference that we played there on a suitable field. It canhere not be like this.”
