The Argentine National Team has a top-level team and no one can deny it. However, it is also clear that the team is not the same without the best player on planet Earth, Lionel Messi. The Argentine star has been slowly overcoming an injury to his right hamstring and we have to see how many minutes he adds in this double playoff date. However, although there are rumors that he may play little, the Argentine press gave new information.
Lionel Scaloni's team faces Paraguay this Thursday at the Mâs Monumental stadium (8pm on Public TV and TyC Sports) and then visits Peru as a visitor next Tuesday (11pm on the same channels). Everything indicates that the Argentine star will be in both games but we have to see how many minutes he can play, taking into account that he only played 40 minutes in the last 20 days. In addition, he missed several duels with Inter Miami.
Leo has been going through a difficult situation beyond his injury. The thing is that he could not be in several Las Garzas games precisely because of that pain and this caused Gerardo el Tata Martino's team to not be able to access the MLS playoffs. In this way, the Florida team will not be able to play again until February. In that context, there is even talk of a possible transfer to another league so that he continues to have a football rhythm (something he would lose if he continues with the pinks).
Although many believe that Messi should rest after a long period of inactivity, the truth is that photos from training this Tuesday were published and he looked good, with a good appearance and prepared for what is to come. We have to see what he talks to Scaloni and if he decides to manage the load or risk a little more since after these two games, he will be without playing for a long time. According to Gastón Edul, Leo trained normally and will start against Paraguay.
