Argentina won against Chile early this Friday, with a score of 3-0, in the seventh round of the qualification for the 2026 World Cup.
Even without Messi, who was not called up, and after a first half without goals, the break woke up Scaloni’s team, and Mac Allister opened the scoring right away, in the 48th minute, after an assist from Julián Álvarez, the new player of At. Madrid.
Álvarez appeared again, in the 84th minute, but this time to take a shot himself and make it 2-0 in the match with a stunning long-range goal.
Finally, it was Dybala’s turn to write his name on the scoreboard, in the 90+1 minute, following an assist from Garnacho.
Highlight for the starting position of Benfica player Nicolás Otamendi, who wore the captain’s armband, on a night when Ángel Di María was honored. With this victory, Argentina remains at the top of the group, with 18 points in seven matches.
