The Albiceleste were able to beat Italy 2-0, despite Lionel Messi & Sergio Aguero injuries, as well as Mauro Icardi and Paolo Dybala not being called up.
“I saw an interesting match this evening. The second half was more complicated than the first, as the Azzurri pressed us well, but we got the two goals and the result.

“Icardi and Dybala are important players and everything is open for the World Cup squad going to Russia. I also want to add that they have always been called up before these friendlies.

“Messi had an adductor problem in the last training session and we rested him as a precaution. He will most likely be ready to play against Spain.”
