Argentina arrived in Angola with a strong team for the friendly…
Argentina have broken the deadlock in their international friendly against Angola. Lautaro Martinez was the one who found the back of the net, thanks to some magic from Lionel Messi.
With the game more balanced than the visitors would have liked, the Inter Miami star was on hand to thread a sensational through ball into the path of the Inter Milan forward.
Martinez made no mistake, drilling his strike low into the far corner and wheeling away to celebrate.
