Lautaro Martínez scores for Inter in 4-0 win vs. Atalanta

Lautaro Martínez scored for Inter in their 4-0 win vs. Atalanta on a pending game of matchday 21 of Serie A. He reached 23 goals in this league’s edition.

With the match going to halftime and Inter leading by one, the Argentine striker received a pass at the edge of the box, turned around and shot with his left foot into the back of the net. Atalanta’s goalkeeper could only see the powerful shot as Martínez converted the 2-0 for his team.

Lautaro would later have the chance to score one more goal when Inter were awarded a penalty in the 53rd minute. The former Racing Club player shot to the left, but there was Atalanta’s goalkeeper to save it. Di Marco scored the 3-0 after the goalkeeper’s rebound.

Martínez was substituted out in the 67th minute and Inter ended up winning 4-0 to get the three points.

Paulo Dybala scores a hattrick for AS Roma in 3-2 win vs. Torino

Paulo Dybala scored a hattrick for AS Roma in their 3-2 win vs. Torino.

Dybala has made it six goals in his last four matches, reaching 11 goals and six assists in 18 Serie A matches with AS Roma. With the score at 0-0, AS Roma were awarded a penalty and it was Dybala who took it.

Up stepped the 30 year old and he would go to the goalkeeper’s left and the goalkeeper would dive the wrong way and Dybala would score to give AS Roma the 1-0 lead. Torino would draw level just two minutes later.

The World Cup winner would score from well outside of the penalty area, placing the ball into the corner of the goal to give AS Roma the 2-1 lead. Dybala’s third goal would arguably be the best of the bunch.

He would play a one-two with Lukaku and Dybala would get the ball at a difficult angle and the Argentine would score his third goal of the match.

Argentina to play Ecuador and Guatemala in June friendly matches

Per reports by journalist Gastón Edul, Argentina will face Ecuador and Guatemala in June friendly matches before the start of the Copa America.

Even though Argentina’s rivals are confirmed, the dates and venues might change. The national team would play Ecuador in Chicago on June 9th and Guatemala in Washington on June 14th. This would mean Lionel Scaloni’s team would arrive in the United States at least ten days before the Copa America begins.

Ecuador is a possible rival for Argentina in case they both qualify for the Copa America semifinals.

Argentina will also play two friendly matches in the United States in March against El Salvador and Nigeria.
