El Salvador 0-3 Argentina, the background of the match: male Lautaro
In the second half, Argentina consolidated their lead, with Lo Celso in the 51st minute. Despite maintaining ball possession at a high percentage, Argentina was unable to score further, due to interventions by goalkeeper González and some missed attempts by Lautaro Martinez who was not in the best physical condition.
Lautaro hasn’t scored for the Argentina national team in 16 games
A paradox for Taurus. In the championship, with the Inter shirt, there are 23 goals in 26 matches played: one every 92′, practically one per game.

Lautaro’s last goal for Argentina dates back to 23 September 2022, a year and a half ago. In the penultimate friendly before the World Cup, won 3-0 against Honduras.
