Goals by Lautaro MARTINEZ and Gio LO CELSO sent Argentina into the semi finals of the Copa America.

A team effort by Lionel SCALONI’s team ensured a birth in the semi finals where they will play hosts Brazil. Lautaro MARTINEZ opened the scoring early once more, this time a lovely backheel flick off a Sergio AGUERO shot which beat the goalkeeper.

Argentina controlled much of the tempo of the first half as they took a 1-0 lead going into half time. The second half saw Venezuela with the ball and Argentina goalkeeper Franco ARMANI was called into action as his key saves maintained his team’s advantage.

Leandro PAREDES sent goal scorer Lautaro MARTINEZ through on goal with a lovely pass but Lautaro’s shot hit the outside of the post.

Lautaro MARTINEZ was substituted off for Angel DI MARIA and Marcos ACUNA came out for Gio LO CELSO. Argentina’s second goal came shortly after LO CELSO was substituted on. DI MARIA initially started the play as the ball fell to AGUERO. His shot was spilled by the goalkeeper and LO CELSO was the first to reach it as he made it 2-0 for Argentina.

Paulo DYBALA was later brought on for Sergio AGUERO.

  3. Best players in my book were – De Paul (like a young Simeone, but with talent), Foyth (we conceded to Colombia down the flanks twice – and Foyth was athletic enough to break all the attacks except one), Martinez (his sharpness, running and pressure), Acuna (all rounder). Now we just need Messi to come back to his usual self.

  7. Good game and good chemistry. Keep it up for SF vs Brazil. De Paul is a general in the field. Hope Messi will be improve in SF.

  8. I’m waiting for those who think Colombia will go all the way to win the thropy after only winning their first game haha

    De Paul has been the best in last 2 matches. Aguero involved in latest 3 goals we scored in this tournament. Lautaro is beast, at 21 he has scored 6 in 10 games and 2 of those came in Copa.

    Lo Celso deserved his goal aswell, he has worked hard since game 1. Venezuela has 60% possession yet only 6 shots compare to Argentina 17. In first 2 games, Argentina has the possession but opponents are the one who’s scores within their first 1-2 chances.

    We unleashed many direct shots rather than doing those mindless sideway passes, and this proof to be more effective. Foyth also did well , there were moments in second half when he outmuscled his opponents against Paraguay and Venezuela.
