The team Scaloni tried out to face Mauritania | OneFootball

The national team trained this Wednesday ahead of the friendly against Mauritania, and Scaloni gave some clues about the lineup that could take the field on Friday. The coach tested a formation with mostly starters, though with a few changes. The main new development was the presence of Marcos Senesi in central defense, while Rodrigo De Paul did not take part in the session due to discomfort.

In goal, Scaloni still has to decide whether Emiliano Martínez will start or if he will give Gerónimo Rulli or Juan Musso, the other two called up for these two friendlies, a chance to play. In defense, Nahuel Molina appears set to be the right back, Cuti Romero the first center back and Senesi his partner, while Nicolás Tagliafico and Marcos Acuña are competing for the left-back spot.

In midfield, Alexis Mac Allister, Leandro Paredes, and Enzo Fernández played alongside Lionel Messi, who leads the team. Up front, Julián Álvarez looks set to start as striker, with Nicolás González or Thiago Almada as possible partners.

The probable lineup would be Martínez, Rulli or Musso; Molina, Romero, Senesi, Tagliafico or Acuña; Mac Allister, Paredes, and Enzo Fernández; Messi, Julián Álvarez, and González or Almada.
