Argentina national team coach Lionel Scaloni on 2-0 win vs. Canada at Copa America

Argentina national team coach Lionel Scaloni spoke about the team’s 2-0 win vs. Canada at the Copa America.

The Argentina national team won their Copa America opener in a match that saw two goals in the second half. Speaking to the media after the match, here is what Lionel Scaloni had to say:

“The important thing is that the team always responds, no matter what the game is like. This team generates goal situations and defends like lions”.

“As a negative aspect, I am left with the chances they created. We will analyze them in detail later. Winning always reinforces a lot of things. Yesterday I said that Canada was a tough opponent, it was a good test.”

Lionel Scaloni also spoke about the pitch:

“We knew we were going to play here seven months ago and they changed the turf two days ago. I’m very sorry for the show, it’s not suitable for this kind of players.”

Scaloni commented on the next match vs. Chile on Tuesday:

“We play based on how we can hurt the opponent. We always do that, and it will be the same in the next match.”
