Change in Argentina’s offense:

Javier Mascherano is considering the possibility of resting Brian Aguirre, who played well in the Albiceleste’s debut. In this way, Luka Romero (Lazio) or Juan Gauto (Huracán) would join up.

The other change would be the entry of Federico Redondo instead of Mateo Tanlongo to gain a mark in the middle of the field.

Although the team led by Javier Mascherano could not qualify during the South American Under 20 tournament held in Colombia in January (they were eliminated in the group stage), they sealed their ticket by being named as the new organizer of the event after FIFA decided to lower the Indonesia’s choice as a result of its political fight with Israel.

Those of Jefecito had a promising start by beating Uzbekistan, current Asian champion, 2-1.
