The perfect partner, this was Julian Alvarez's assistance to Lionel Messi with Argentina

Lionel Messi and the Argentina team are having fun and are beginning to qualify for the 2026 World Cup. The Argentine team wins in a big way against Peru. The Argentines establish themselves as one of the big favorites to be in the World Cup and defend their title in an important way. Now, the team wins comfortably against Peru as a visitor and one of the players with the best performance is precisely Julian Alvarez.

The Manchester City striker is having a tremendous start to the season. In his team, he is having important minutes, as well as goals that give vital points to his team. Now, in the Argentina team, it is beginning to be confirmed that his ownership must be a guarantee in each of the games. In the match against Peru, a great connection with Lionel Messi ended in a goal and it was the second goal of the match.

Álvarez seems to have overcome his adaptation period to Europe. With Kevin De Bruyne's injury, the Argentine took advantage of his opportunity and by dint of goals and assists he made Guardiola scratch his bald head. Added to this is his great World Cup with the Argentine National Team, overshadowing Lautaro Martínez and being decisive in winning the title. Now, it was great proof of this and it seems that Lionel Messi finds Julian Alvarez as his true partner on the field of play.

Lionel Messi shines against Peru

The Albiceleste captain participated from the beginning of the play by finding Enzo Fernández, who perfectly commanded the transition until he located Nicolás González who sent a shot that the Argentine number 10 hit into the corner with a first touch. It was the third assist from the Fiorentina attacker and the second one that Messi made. A few minutes passed until La Pulga scored again in the scoring column, since as a result of a new offensive appearance by Fernández he ended up repeating the same formula with which the first of the night arrived.
