Bolivia vs Argentina: Storylines
Bolivia have struggled over the past decade to make the most of their huge home advantage. However, the Argentineans have had a tough time lately there, even dropping their last trip to La Paz with a surprising 2-0 loss.
It’s pretty clear that there are plenty of limitations on every side of the pitch for the home team, especially when compared to Argentina, so they’re likely to try and defend with a lot of players and wait for a counter-attack.
Coach Lionel Scaloni has done a nice job of calling up talented young players to replace their former generation but he’s yet to find the formula for success, as Argentina have looked flat in the final third of the pitch despite having Lionel Messi.
Argentina dominated the possession of the ball and most of the chances in their first game vs. Ecuador but, other than a penalty by Messi, they didn’t actually get much going on in offense.
