Argentina national team coach Lionel Scaloni spoke about Argentina’s 2-1 win against Mauritania.
Enzo Fernández and Nico Paz scored for Argentina in their 2-1 win but the team’s performance was wasn’t the best. Speaking to the media after the match, here is what Lionel Scaloni had to say:
“We did not play a good game. We were not at our level. We have to admit that and we have to improve.
“It’s obvious that we can play a lot better, we have done it All the guys we have been able to see have contributed their part but when a match becomes complicated, it’s harder.
“We are talking individually with each player to discuss what we expect and what we see. This is what these two matches are all about. These days also serve us to make it clear that there is no easy opponent, although we do know that when we are in good form, we can compete against any team.
“Sometimes it can happen that when we try something different, the performance might suffer, especially if there’s not much time.
“Now is the time to analyze and we believe we have more or less a clear idea of why today’s performance was what it was. We know that if this team plays well, the chances of winning well go up a lot.”
Till Messi and De Paul were subbed in, the team looked in full control. Let’s accept that the Inter Miami duo are now in a holiday mood. World Cup is far from being a holiday season. Then came more and more subs. The team completely lost plot. What does Scaloni want? Hasn’t he yet decided on the 26? If that is the case then I see a repeat of 2018 in 2026.
Yeah if u want to compete at WC Argentina needs to show why they are Argentina and this belongs to each and ever 11 player starting from The captain.
No doubt it was a bad game that too against a 115th ranked team. i saw the press conference scaloni was literally pissed off and What i see the problem is team is not gelled up yet so it will take time. Hopefully we see a much improved performance in the next match.
