The Argentine National Team prepares to face Australia for the round of 16 of Qatar World Cup 2022 y Lionel Scaloni defines the team that will have against the Socceroos in search of keeping the illusion alive. So far he has not repeated an eleven in the maximum appointment and once again changes are expected.

The main doubt in the Albiceleste goes through the replacement of Ángel Di María, who left the field in the duel against Poland 13 minutes after the supplement with a discomfort in the thigh of his left leg and, although the studies did not reveal a fibrillar rupture, The footballer suffers from a contracture and given the short rest time for the duel, there are many chances that it is not from the game.

In his place could play Alejandro Gómez or Ángel Correa. Therefore, Leandro Paredes is ruled out. In addition, another doubt, according to what the coach proved in training, would be between Julián Álvarez and Lautaro Martínez.

On the other hand, from the coaching staff they are analyzing making a change in the defense with respect to the previous game, which would not be for Nicolás Otamendi or Nahuel Molina. Notably Marcos Acuña finished well against Poland, but added only 60 minutes so that he did not overload after having reached the World Cup with groin pain. For this reason, it is not ruled out that he be replaced.
