A 2-0 victory over Canada: Lautaro comes on in closing stages
Argentina's journey in the 2024 Copa America continues. The reigning world champions, who are looking to retain the continental title they won three years ago, progressed to the final thanks to a comfortable 2-0 victory over Canada, for whom Tajon Buchanan was unavailable.
The match, which was played at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, was decided by goals from Julian Alvarez and Leo Messi. Inter captain Lautaro Martinez came on for the closing stages, replacing Alvarez in the 78th minute. Valentin Carboni didn't feature.
Argentina will now face either Colombia or Uruguay in the final, which is scheduled to take place at 2:00 CEST on Monday 15 July.
