The national DT will give a virtual press conference this Wednesday from 12.30 in Argentina.
Messi, who debuted last Sunday at Paris Saint Germain in his first 20 minutes of play of the season, He arrived at dawn this Tuesday in his private plane along with Leandro Paredes and Angel Di MarÃa, his mates in the French club. In principle, the three rested and in the afternoon they faced their first training, the second of the team, at the Deportivo La Guaira club.
Facing the duel with the Vinotinto, Scaloni analyzes which team he will enlist, since it has the obligatory casualties of Cristian Romero and Paredes, who must meet a suspension date by the accumulation of two yellows. Germán Pezzella and Guido RodrÃguez, both Betis players from Spain, emerge as possible replacements.
It is likely that the Argentine coach will not bet on the majority of starters who played the final of the Copa América for the meeting with the Venezuelans, with the exception of goalkeeper Emiliano MartÃnez, take note of so all cannons to the classic next Sunday against Brazil.
It should be noted that Franco Armani and Julian Alvarez (River Plate) they were the first to arrive on Venezuelan land. Little later they arrived “dra “MartÃnez, Geronimo Rulli and Juan Musso (archers); “Cuti” Romero, Gonzalo Montiel, Juan Foyth, Frames Acuna, Pezzella, Luke Martinez Quarta, Nahuel Molina Lucero, Nicholas Otamendi, Nicholas Tagliaphic and Lisandro Martinez (defenders); Rodrigo From Paul, Luke Ocampos, Rodriguez, Alexander Gomez, Angel and JoaquÃn Correa, Nicholas Dominguez, Exequiel Palaces and Giovani The Celso (frills); Lautaro Martinez, Nicholas Gonzalez, Paul Dybala and Emiliano Good day (forwards). All of them performed essentially regenerative and physical complementation tasks in the first practice under heavy rain.
Behind closed doors this Tuesday, already with Messi, Paredes and Di MarÃa, the squad carried out speed movements with the ball in different circuits together with the physical trainer Luis MartÃn. Then, under the orders of Scaloni and his field aides Walter Samuel, Robert Ayala and Pablo Aimar, Players they had soccer action in confined spaces. Meanwhile, the goalkeepers worked with coach MartÃn Tocalli.
The game against Venezuela -for which the local government authorized the capacity of about 6 thousand fans- it will be vital for Argentina in his intention to assert himself in second place in the Playoffs. One of the unknowns will go through the presence from the start of Messi, since the 10 continues with its set-up from the physical and soccer.
What’s more, Tagliafico, Palacios, Montiel, De Paul, Lo Celso, Ocampos, Otamendi, Pezzella, MartÃnez Quarta and González have a yellow card, so that one more will deprive them of playing next Sunday before Brazil, leader of the Qualifiers with 18 units; Then there are Argentina with 12, Ecuador 9, Uruguay and Colombia 8, Paraguay 7, Chile 6, Bolivia 5 and Venezuela and Peru close the positions, both with 4 units.
Given the tight schedule, The Argentine coach is presented with a new challenge, since he will have to dose energy in a large squad and oil a rotation within an uncomfortable path.
But With the full delegation, Scaloni will be able to start deciding with which actors the selected one will take the stage to represent the work that will lead him to big Qatar 2022 World Cup Show.
