Chile almost took the lead at the end of the first half. In the 45+1 minute, they were awarded a corner kick. From this situation, Chile created a dangerous attack. The cross from the right wing was aimed at the second post and center-back Matias Catalan beat Otamendi in the air, but his diagonal header hit the post.Image

After the break, Argentina continued to dominate the game. Their relentless efforts helped Lionel Scaloni’s team achieve their goal. In the 48th minute, De Paul dropped the ball from the right wing to Alvarez, who then crossed it inside. Lautaro Martinez cleverly dropped the ball, allowing Mac Allister to run in and finish with one touch, opening the score for Argentina.Image

The excitement after the first goal helped Argentina play more confidently and they quickly doubled the gap. In the 84th minute, Lo Celso stole the ball from the Chilean player in the middle and passed it to the left wing for Alvarez. Although the shooting angle was not really favorable, Alvarez’s left-footed shot still went beyond the reach of goalkeeper Arias, hit the bottom of the crossbar and flew into the net.
