Argentina vs Uruguay Preview
Argentina battled Chile in the first match of its Copa America quest. The match ended in a 1-1 draw, and when it was over, Argentina’s gaffer Lionel Scaloni made it clear he felt his team deserved to come out on top.
“There were ten or twelve minutes of the second half in which there were imbalances and they got the penalty. From there it was uphill. We generated a lot of situations and we deserved to win, but we left with a draw. It is the beginning of a very tough tournament,” Scaloni said after the match.
Superstar Lionel Messi scored the lone goal for La Albiceleste, but the team had several other opportunities it didn’t manage to cash in on, and it won’t be able to topple many more teams if it continues to miss those opportunities. Argentina has two wins and four draws over its last six matches, so finishing opponents has been a weak spot for Messi and company.
On the other side, this will be the first match for Uruguay in the tournament, and the team will be getting a break at just the right time. Uruguay will be getting striker Edinson Cavani back for this game after he served an international suspension in the World Cup Qualifiers, so that should give the group an offensive boost. Uruguay has gone 2-2-2 over its previous six matches, and it faces a tough draw out of the gate here.
“We have to be aware there’s things to improve as always and get ready for something that gives us a lot of aspiration,” Uruguay coach Oscar Tabarez said this week about facing Argentina.
Group A consists of Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Paraguay and Uruguay. The four best teams of each group will advance to the knockout stage.
