Paulo Dybala scored for Juventus in their 3-1 win vs. Atalanta.
Dybala’s ending his pre-season in good form as Serie A kicks off next weekend. After a less than stellar season last time around, the 27 year old will look to turn things around and get back into the Argentina national team.
A counter attack by Juventus ended with Chiesa playing a low cross into the penalty area and Dybala with a finish to give Juventus the 1-0 lead.
Mauro Icardi continues his excellent start to the season as he scored his second goal in two matches.
It took only three minutes for Icardi to score the opening goal of the match. A cross into the penalty area found the number 9 as his flying header opened the scoring and gave PSG the 1-0 lead.
Lionel Messi was presented before the match as he, along with the two other Copa America winners with Argentina on the team, Angel Di Maria and Leandro Paredes watched from the stands.
Icardi is definitely making a case for himself to be included in the Argentina squad for next month’s World Cup qualifying matches.
Alexis Mac Allister scored for Brighton in their 2-1 comeback win vs. Burnley for Premier League matchday one.
The 22-year-old Argentine attacking midfielder was substituted on in the 75th minute and scored just 3 minutes later the winning goal for his team. The former Argentinos Juniors and Boca Juniors got off to a great start in this Premier League season 2021/2022.
Mac Allister did not have the best of showings at the Olympics for Argentina but a goal to start off the season will surely do his confidence a world of good.

Roberto Pereyra scored twice with Nahuel Molina scoring once for Udinese in their 3- win vs. Ascoli.
All three goals were scored by Argentine players as Udinese advanced in the Coppa Italia. Pereyra made it 1-0 for Udinese as he got onto the rebound of a loose ball.
Nahuel Molina made it 2-0 as Pereyra played a pass into the Argentine Copa America winner and his powerful effort beat the goalkeeper to double Udinese’s lead. Pereyra would make it 3-0 following a lovely turn inside the penalty area and a strike from close range into the roof of the net.
Nicolas Gonzalez was also on target in the Coppa Italia for Fiorentina.
Lazio have reportedly dropped their asking price for Joaquin Correa as Inter remain interested in signing the player.
Per a report by Il Messaggero, Lazio had a previous asking price of €40 million for the 27 year old forward. However, that price has now been dropped to €30 million plus bonuses.
Inter has been interested in signing the Argentine, especially with Lukaku joining Chelsea. It also appears as though the Argentine Copa America winner is willing to leave the club.
