Lisandro Martinez scored a header, the third of the match for Ajax in their 3-0 win vs. RKC Waalwijk.

With fellow Argentine Nicolas Tagliafico out due to suspension, it was Lisandro Martinez who started at left back for Ajax. With the team winning 2-0, Lisandro found himself inside the penalty area and a well placed header beat the goalkeeper for the third goal.

Martinez has not been included in Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni’s squad for next month’s World Cup qualifiers.

Sergio Aguero could miss up to two more months due to injury according to Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola.

Aguero has been out of action since June and could be out until November. A knee injury against Burnley on June 22 means that Aguero was not selected by Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni for the team’s two World Cup qualifying matches next month. And according to coach Pep Guardiola, he will be out for longer:

“We knew the injury was difficult. He still hasn’t had one training session with us and Sergio is not a guy who regains his physical condition quickly. He has been out for a long time, so maybe in one or two months he will be ready.”

In the back, Lucas Martínez Quarta and Gonzalo Montiel are set to join the team.

Eduardo Salvio, who scored for Boca in their Copa Libertadores win, will also be included.
