Because he had completed his goal of passing the group stage, Lionel Messi was allowed to rest in the final round against Peru. Without Messi, Argentina still easily defeated Peru with a score of 2-0 . The most prominent star is Lautaro Martinez, who completed a double when he had his first chance to start at Copa America 2024.

Martinez is currently lucky in this tournament because he scored 4 goals after the group stage journey. The Inter Milan striker also attracted attention at a special moment after shooting. Accordingly, the player born in 1997 quickly ran to the sideline to hug Messi .

The close image between the couple made Rodrigo De Paul excited and the Atletico Madrid player smiled and applauded. Compared to Julian Alvarez, Martinez is having a more explosive time.

He also had the honor of receiving the ‘Best Player of the Match’ award. With 9 points after 3 matches, Argentina will meet the second team in Group B. Ecuador is currently ranked second in Group B before the final match.
