Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni remained evasive on the subject of Lionel Messi, back from injury, but uncertain for the next match against Peru.
As part of the qualifiers for the next World Cup, Lionel Scaloni’s Argentina will face Peru, at the Estadio Nacional, in Lima, on the night of Tuesday to Wednesday. Asked about the presence of his captain Lionel Messi, who has not yet recovered from his muscle injury contracted with Inter Miami against Toronto on September 21, the Argentine technician left doubt.
“I think the team plays with determination, regardless of the players on the pitch, that’s the most important thingfirst declared the Albiceleste coach. We saw the other day that we could also play well without Lionel Messi. We would like to have him on the pitch but, when he is not there, we have to replace him one way or another. »
And the 45-year-old added: “We can make adjustments depending on the physical condition of certain players. We always try to play those who are 100% or very close to it. Today it is very difficult for everyone to be at their best in these matches, but there could be some adjustments. »
