Copa America 2019, Qatar 0-2 Argentina: 5 Talking Points

#1 Silky cameo earns Paulo Dybala a quarter-final starting spot

Super-sub Dybala is knocking on Scaloni's door for a quarter-final start

Paulo Dybala is no stranger to making an impression when it counts and the Juventus forward did just that in his 15 minutes off the bench in national colors impressing scaloni and his argentine teammates.

Replacing goalscorer Martinez, the former Palermo prodigy drifted from the right-wing to central areas, offering more of a balance to the attack than his counterpart and proving to be lethal in attack as well.

Dybala and Aguero showcased a couple of instances of a blossoming partnership up front. In the 82nd minute, Argentina’s No.21 set it on a plate for the Manchester City striker to finish.

While it would be undeniably harsh to instruct Martinez to sit out the next game after getting on the scoresheet, Dybala is too much of a gamechanger to just contribute as a substitute.
