The Argentina national team trained this morning for the last time before they travel to Brasilia this evening. On Friday, Argentina will face Uruguay in Copa America´s matchday 2 of group B.

During this Thursday morning’s practice at AFA’s training facility in Ezeiza, the squad began exercising in the gym at 10:40 (local time), and then, already on the field, they did some coordination and speed exercies for around 20 minutes. For the last part, the coaching staff set an informal football practice in reduced spaces with three different teams.

According to the AFA’s official website, a press conference is planned for this evening (3:25 PM, local time), where coach Lionel Scaloni plus one Argentine player will answer questions from the media.

At 4 PM, the whole squad will be heading to Ezeiza’s airport, which is just 8 minutes away from Argentina’s training center. The estimated arrival to the city of Brasilia is 7:45 PM today, and they will all have dinner at 9 PM.

Cristian Romero is set to start for Argentina vs. Uruguay while Nicolas González appears to be a doubt.

Argentina national team coach Lionel Scaloni held a training session on Wednesday and once more, Cristian Romero trained alongside his team mates.

Romero missed Argentina’s opening match at the Copa America due to muscle strain but per reports by both TNT Sports and TyC Sports, he will partner Nicolas Otamendi vs. Uruguay. Per the reports, Romero has recovered and will replace Martinez Quarta.

One player who is not fully fit is Nicolas González. The soon to be Brighton man has a muscle strain and is a doubt for Argentina’s second match at the Copa America. While Gonzalez was part of the initial eleven in training, he was replaced by Angel Di Maria. Here is the rumored eleven:

Emiliano Martínez; Gonzalo Montiel, Cristian Romero, Nicolás Otamendi, Nicolás Tagliafico; Rodrigo De Paul, Leandro Paredes, Giovani Lo Celso; Lionel Messi, Lautaro Martínez and Nicolás González or Ángel Di María.

This would mean one, possibly two changes from the team that started vs. Chile. Romero would be brought in for Martinez Quarta while Di Maria could start in place of González.
