Paulo DYBALA talks about Argentina victory: “The team won and gave it their all”

Paulo DYBALA spoke about his team’s 1-0 victory while also discussing the weather.

Anyone who watched the match will have seen the it wasn’t the best of weathers as the wind played a big factor. Speaking after the win, here’s what DYBALA had to say:

“The weather didn’t help anything because the wind would constantly change. First, we would have it against us and after that in our favor. In the second half, it was always against us and it made it easier for them because they started coming in with long balls. It wasn’t easy to play, the pitch was very dry as well.

“One doesn’t like to make excuses but they are things that play against you. You have to remember that the team won and gave it their all.”

Argentina coach Lionel SCALONI talks team, Copa America following win

Argentina coach Lionel SCALONI spoke to the press following his team’s 1-0 win.

The coach stated that he has 70% of the Copa America list completed and gave his impressions on the victory. Here’s what he had to say:

“From a play point of view, logically, I can’t say much. But in terms of the attitude and the desire, they were incredible. Comparing this match with the one from the other day, we are happy not just because of the result but because we were superior in our play, that is important.”

When asked if the formation we saw today would be the one used at the Copa America:

“Yes, what do I know? You guys are so focused on the formation. We don’t believe that it’s the most important thing.”

SCALONI also spoke about ZARACHO who was a substitute:

“ZARACHO played 15 minutes and they were 15 incredible minutes. He connected with the attack and you wouldn’t be able to tell it was his debut. It’s the best thing that could happen to a coach.

“I believe I have 70% of the list completed, today for example I could put ZARACHO.”

Angel CORREA goal wins it as Argentina get 1-0 victory against Morocco

Angel CORREA came on as a substitute and scored for Argentina in their 1-0 win against Morocco.

After a nearly disastrous 3-1 loss against Venezuela, Lionel SCALONI’s team got a scrappy 1-0 in less than stellar conditions. The first half could have been thrown into a UFC event as there were 26 fouls and three yellow cards.

The second half was less violent and did manage to bring a goal. Angel CORREA received the ball at the edge of the penalty area and scored to give Argentina their first win in 2019 and a boost in confidence.

Nicolas TAGLIAFICO out of Argentina team, Angel CORREA a doubt against Morocco

Nicolas TAGLIAFICO will miss Argentina’s match against Morocco while Angel CORREA is a doubt.

After having started the match against Venezuela, Nicolas TAGLIAFICO has been left out of the squad to face Morocco. Per reports, TAGLIAFICO had been feeling discomfort in his hip, this being from an accumulation of all the matches he has played.

With his club Ajax having important matches left to play this season, specifically in the Champions League, TAGLIAFICO will not be risked.

In addition, Angel CORREA of Atletico Madrid is a doubt. CORREA has pain in his knee and after having not played against Venezuela, he could be left out completely against Morocco.
