The Serie A Trio Shouldn’t Waste the Opportunity in Argentina National Team

DBasia.news – Argentina interim coach Lionel Scaloni asked Mauro Icardi, Lautaro Martinez, and Giovanni Simeone for not wasting the opportunity to perform in La Albicelesta. Scaloni believed the three players have the potential to be the main players.

Mauro Icardi is finally getting the chance to play for Argentina national team after the absence in the 2018 World Cup. At that time, Jorge Sampaoli chose Gonzalo Higuain.

The decision was questioned. Moreover, Argentina failed to gain the highest achievement after the defeat against France in the qualification phase.

Meanwhile, Lautaro and Simeone are two young and rising players. They are predicted to be the backbone of Argentina national team in the future.

“Icardi, Martinez, and Simeone are players of a huge level,” said Scaloni during the press conference ahead of the upcoming friendly match against Guatemala and Colombia.

“Mauro has been playing at the top for the most years. It’s time now for these players to make the most of the opportunities they have,” Scaloni said.

“These three are here now, so if they do well, why can’t they continue?” he uttered.

The news mentioned Mauro Icardi’s absence from the Argentina national team squad wasn’t due to technical factor. On the other hand, at that time, Lionel Messi rumored to ask the coach for not involving Icardi due to personal reason.

Meanwhile, La Pulga won’t play when Argentina play against Guatemala and Colombia. The Barcelona striker asked the favor to rest playing for La Albiceleste.
