Facing the game before the cast led by Gustavo Alfaro, Scaloni has the entire squad at his disposal since -as he explained- the absence of defender Cristian “Cuti” Romero even from the substitute bench is not to “worry”. With the entry of forward Julián Álvarez during the second half against Bolivia, there are no more outfield players without minutes in the squad, since the only ones who still did not have minutes were goalkeepers Juan Musso and Agustín Marchesín.

Scaloni, at the close of the press conference after the victory over Bolivia, he agreed after the end of the first phase: “The balance is positive because we have played with very strong rivals. Without detracting from it, our group has had historical and tough rivals and we are satisfied with all the players. “
