In their 2-1 victory against Australia, Argentina’s coach Lionel Scaloni rested an injured Angel di Maria, and the attacker only appeared for the final ten minutes of the thrilling 4-3 penalty shootout victory over the Netherlands in the quarterfinals of the tournament.
Lautaro Martinez disclosed that he has been receiving pain-relieving injections throughout the competition to treat a persistent ankle issue before the team’s semi-final matchup against Croatia in the semi-finals.
