The Argentine National Team had its first training session throbbing the party at the Monumental

The Argentine National Team is preparing for its party: the team led by Lionel Scaloni faced its first training session, at the AFA grounds in Ezeiza, with my mind set on the friendly against Panama next Thursdaywhere the world champions will celebrate with the fans in their first meeting after the historic coronation in the World Cup in Qatar 2022.

The coach already has all the players who were crowned in Doha, except Alejandro “Papu” Gómez (Sevilla did not authorize him to travel because he is still recovering from an ankle injury). In turn, he summoned some youngsters who will have their first experience in the Major (such as Lautaro Blanco, Máximo Perrone, Facundo Buonanotte and Valentín Carboni) and also footballers who missed the World Cup due to injury (Giovani Lo Celso and Nicolás González).

From this training, Lionel Scaloni will begin to think about the probable formation for the duel against Panama: analyzes putting the eleven footballers who played in the final against France at Lusail on the field, in the historic final in which the Argentine National Team won on penalties and was crowned world champion.

The Argentine National Team premiered the three stars with a particular detail in a special photo

In the photo uploaded to their Instagram accounts, they can be seen together with Nicolás Otamendi, Paulo Dybala, Rodrigo De Paul, Lionel Messi and Giovanni Lo Celso wearing the three stars in their clothing. “Back home” can be read next to the post.

Anyway, what caught my attention is that it is a repeated photo in which the players are all in exactly the same position as after being champions of America, but with the detail that Alejandro Papu Gómez was replaced by Paulo Dybala.

The agenda of the Argentine National Team during the FIFA double date

After this first practice, the Albiceleste and also He will train on Tuesday afternoon -the day he will speak at the Scaloni conference- and Wednesday, in the only three training sessions that the players will have before the first friendly, on Thursday at 9:00 p.m. at the Monumental against Panama. Then, there will be four days of preparation for the game against Curacao, which will be the following Tuesday in Santiago del Estero.

La Albiceleste will travel to the north of the country at the last moment, although they will stay in the capital and not in Termas de Río Hondo to avoid traffic to the Único Madre de Ciudades Stadium, which already has a capacity for 42,000 people.
