So far he has not added minutes, he would have the opportunity to play the round of 16 of the World Cup in Qatar.

Lionel Scaloni, coach of the Argentine team, is already planning what will be the commitment against Australia, to be played this Saturday, December 3. The strategist of the Copa América champion has already tested who would be the replacement for Ángel Di María.

Now, the Argentinian manager would have to use an element that wanted to give up his life for the Albiceleste and has not added minutes in the tournament. The winger Di María worked in a differentiated way in the last training session of the National Team, prior to the match of the round of 16.

In this way, the presence of him from the start would be almost ruled out. In this context, Lionel Scaloni has already tested the three possible alternatives to replace the Juventus (Italian giant club) winger.

According to the journalist Gastón Edul, Scaloni worked with Leandro Paredes, who was a substitute against Poland, to form a line of four midfielders. The other option is for Papu Gómez to replace Di María. However, an element that has not been used so far would have its chance in the round of 16.

Who would be Scaloni's plan B to measure Australia?

Ángel Correa was also part of the practice in the starting team. The Atlético de Madrid striker could be Scaloni's surprise to face Australia. 'Angelito', who preferred to be in the squad prior to the Finalissima despite the fact that he had a wire coming out of the heart operation, hopes to be taken into account in the crucial match.
