La Albiceleste dominated the opposition, with Julian Alvarez putting on a Man of the Match performance
Ahead of the contest, La Albiceleste, all the fans in attendance and those around the world watched as Argentina paid tribute and goodbye to legend Angel Di Maria. The dynamic winger announced his international retirement after winning Copa, and with his family by his side, he gave a emotional speech in front of a sold-out crowd, with flashlights from cell phones beaming from the stands and cheers echoing from around the ground.
After a dynamic and contentious first 45 minutes, the two sides went into halftime scoreless. However, Lionel Scaloni's side came out of the break with intensity. Just three minutes into the second half, Mac Allister fired home to give them a 1-0 lead off an Alvarez assist.
