MADRID, 16 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) –

The Argentine team thrashed (5-0) this Wednesday in its last preparation match for the World Cup in Qatar against the United Arab Emirates, at the Mohammed Bin Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi, in a pending match that featured the majority of players headlines, including Lionel Messi.

Scaloni’s men spared no effort and left a very good image against a team that hardly put up any resistance. Goals from Julián Álvarez, Ángel Di María twice, Messi and Joaquín Correa helped the Albiceleste arrive in Qatar with sky-high morale and maintain their undefeated status in the last 36 games.

With their sights set on their debut next Tuesday, November 22, against the Saudi Arabian team, Argentina made clear its defensive solidity and its great punch and reaffirmed, once again, as a candidate to lift the World Cup 36 years later. in the, surely, last opportunity for Leo Messi to sit on the world throne.

The man from Rosario led the game for his team and even made it 4-0 after a cross shot with his ‘bad’ leg. Before, Julián Álvarez had put the first after taking advantage precisely of a pass from ’10’ and Di María, first with a shot at the far post and then after good driving inside the area, sealed the match before the break. Correa closed the win in the second half after picking up a ball between the lines and sending the ball into the back of the net.
