Hupu News, October 14th After defeating Venezuela 1-0, the Argentina national team will face Puerto Rico at 21:00 local time on Tuesday at the Miami Chase Stadium to complete the trip to the United States for a friendly match. In the last training before the game, Argentina coach Scaloni attended a press conference and talked about the return of Messi, who had just scored twice in the MLS for Inter Miami.

About Messi's situation

"Like everyone, I watched his game on Saturday. As far as I know, he is in good condition, although I have not communicated with him in person. We will conduct the final training before tomorrow's game, and I will confirm with him. If conditions permit , he will play tomorrow. But it needs to be confirmed whether he will start or come on as a substitute. Now that he returns to the team, he will definitely have playing time, but the specific time is still uncertain "

About the goalkeeper arrangement

"Emiliano Martinez, like all players, has not yet been determined. The desire to compete is very valuable. He should continue to start tomorrow, after he insisted on returning to the team with a calf injury. Come November we may try other options. "

About giving opportunities to new players

"Some new players will debut tomorrow. This is our established training plan. They deserve this opportunity and this is a good opportunity to test their abilities. "

"So my idea is to let players like Flaco Lopez, Moreno and Rivero who have not yet made their debut for the Argentina national team Get some experience. We always welcome the arrival of new players, but only if there is such a foundation. "

The performance of Jose Manuel Lopez

"His growth was expected, but he has made a major breakthrough in recent months. As long as he performs normally, he will have the opportunity to make his debut in the national team jersey tomorrow. "

About Rivero

"He is in good condition and feels very good. Fortunately we were able to practice fully this week as the game was scheduled for later on Friday , we practiced tactical concepts, were able to complete nearly two full training sessions, and were able to perform some defensive tasks, which we are satisfied with. "

"We are very satisfied with him because we believe he has very good development potential and he has performed well at River Plate. Well, he's definitely going to get playing time in both games, and we'll see if it's the first or the second, but the idea is to get him out there, contribute, and continue to look at him, right? "

For the young forward Mastantuono who returned to Real Madrid due to injury

"We had in-depth communication before his return. He is growing steadily at the pace an 18-year-old player should have, which is very important. As long as he meets the requirements, he will naturally get the corresponding opportunities. "

About lineup planning

"We will discuss it below We will generally maintain the existing framework during the next international match. We will comprehensively consider Argentinian league players, and long-distance travel requires full communication, but in principle we will maintain stability while not excluding newcomers "

In response to Sule's agent's wish to be selected for the Argentine national team

"Sule, Bonanotte, Ganaccio, Carboni and other new stars are all on the inspection list. What I want to say is that they are all within the scope of our inspection. These young people who are considered to have potential for the national team will get the opportunity to be called up as long as the conditions permit. "

About tactical evaluation

"The level of the Central and North American teams should not be underestimated. We were in a tough battle in the friendly match last year, and the key depends on the attitude of the game. "

About the confrontation between Mexico and Argentina in the U20 World Cup

"My thoughts on Mexican football Full of respect, they have a strong football heritage. The so-called grievances are more exaggerated by the media, and the essence is a normal competition between the two giants. "

Regarding the rumors of the European and American Cup finals

"Regarding the so-called "European and American Cup finals" reports, after verification, we have not received any official news. "

About Argentina's youth training system

"I don't know much about the specific situation of other national teams, but the work carried out by our Argentina U20 team is quite solid. Like Bernardo, Placente, Facundo Quiroga, as well as Garce, all those who hold coaching positions in the youth team are motivated by their passionate love for the Argentina jersey and fully expect the children to continue to learn and grow in the process of training and games. Their serious and responsible attitude is truly admirable. "

"No matter whether the game ends up being lost or won, these coaches will try their best to train players. Their goal is very clear, which is to make these young players eligible to play for the adult national team in the future. "
