Argentina vs. Paraguay: Di María missed the line 1-0 for the ‘Albiceleste’ | VIDEO

The mission of the Argentine team is to continue at a firm pace in the Qatar 2022 Qualifiers and they went out with everything in search of a partial advantage against Paraguay. The match started favorably for those led by Lionel Scaloni, but Ángel Di María failed to inflate the nets almost over the goal line.

The meeting entered the 11th minute of play, when the combined ‘Albiceleste’ put together a good collective action on rival terrain. Lionel Messi received through the center of the field and was making the diagonal to the left, trying to find a space between the large number of rival defenders.

The ‘Flea’ was very patient and managed to enable Joaquín Correa with a filtered pass, who had marked the area well for the pass. Goalkeeper Antony Silva came out with speed to reduce the angle of definition, although he was not very successful. The ball was free on the right, where Ángel Di María was.

The PSG attacker could not anticipate Omar Alderete, who could not clear in the first instance, but had the great opportunity to push the ball into goal. However, in an unexpected moment, the Paraguayan defender used the cue to put an end to the danger, generating a great lament in the rival.

Let us remember that, without counting this result to be defined, the Argentine team is in second place in the Qatar 2022 Qualifiers with 18 points, while Paraguay is in sixth place with 11 units. The ‘Albirroja’ needs to add to get into the repechage zone.
