On June 15 at 8:00 AM, the Argentine national team will face Guatemala in a friendly match in Washington, USA, as they continue their preparations for the upcoming Copa América. Coach Scaloni has confirmed that Messi will start in this fixture.
Scaloni said, “We gave Messi some playing time against Ecuador and we’ll decide his exact duration based on how he’s doing. Ideally, if he can play the full 90 minutes, that would be great.”
“Friday’s match (against Guatemala) will be our last warm-up game before the Copa América and our final chance to make decisions about the squad. Until now, we have a clear idea, and we’ll see how training goes this week.”
“For tomorrow’s game, theoretically anything could happen. As long as the players are available, we’ll see them in action, and then we’ll make our decisions after the match.”
