Live Streaming Laga persahabatan Argentina dan Venezuela, Sabtu (23/3) di Estadio Wanda Metropolitano .
Live Streaming Laga persahabatan Argentina dan Venezuela bakal menjadi penampilan pertama Lionel Messi dengan seragam La Albiceleste sejak Piala Dunia 2018.
Bintang Barcelona itu akhirnya memenuhi panggilan pelatih Lionel Scaloni untuk jeda internasional kali ini, di mana Argentina akan menghadapi Venezuela dan Maroko.
Setelah dikandaskan Prancis di babak 16 besar Piala Dunia 2018, Argentina mulai menata ulang tim nasionalnya. Jorge Sampaoli digantikan Scaloni, dan beberapa pemain senior pensiun dari pentas internasional.

Masa depan Messi di Argentina sempat dipertanyakan. Pasalnya, Scaloni mengaku tidak yakin apakah pemegang rekor gol terbanyak Argentina (65 gol) itu bakal kembali ke tim nasional. Namun keraguan itu akhirnya hilang.
Argentina telah memainkan enam laga uji coba pasca-Piala Dunia 2018. Hasilnya, Argentina menang empat kali dan hanya kalah sekali, yakni dengan skor tipis melawan sang rival abadi Brasil di Jeddah. Enam laga itu semuanya dimainkan tanpa Messi dan hasilnya memuaskan.
Argentina bermain solid sebagai satu tim tanpa Messi. Akankah keutuhan itu tetap terjaga dengan kembalinya Messi?
Scaloni percaya kembalinya Messi tidak bakal merusak stabilitas tim Argentina. Dia justru berharap Messi, yang musim ini telah mencetak 39 gol dalam 37 penampilan untuk Barcelona, bisa membawa performa di level klub tersebut ke tim nasional.

Argentina's Lionel Messi returned to international duty for the first time since the World Cup on Friday but it was a disappointing night for the forward as his side lost 3-1 to Venezuela in a friendly in Madrid.
Messi showed flashes of brilliance but it was not his night as Venezuela put three past their more illustrious rivals for the first time with goals from Salomon Rondon, Jhon Murillo and Josef Martinez. Lautaro Martinez scored Argentina's consolation.
The team announced after the loss that Messi will miss Tuesday's match against Morocco as a precaution following a groin injury. Atlanta United's Gonzalo "Pity" Martinez will also skip the match in Tangier with a hamstring injury.
Following the match, Argentina manager Luis Scaloni said: "The second half left us with positive things and the first half with negative ones. Better that they happened that way.
"We learned a lot from this loss. The situations we created were largely in due part to Messi. This match helped us to see how [the others] played alongside Messi."
Messi took a sabbatical after his country's early departure from last year's finals in Russia, but he returned with a clean shaven new look to captain the side in the all-South American affair at Atletico Madrid's Wanda Metropolitano stadium.
Venezuela had only beaten Argentina once in 23 previous encounters, but they got the perfect start after five minutes when Rondon brought down a long pass inside the box and crashed a shot past keeper Franco Armani.
Rondon should have made it two with a header in the 40th but the second goal was only moments away as Murillo took advantage of a quick free kick to scamper to the edge of the box and curl a lovely right-foot shot into the far corner of the net.
Lautaro Martinez finished off a superb counter-attack to pull Argentina back into the game after 59 minutes but their hopes were short lived and Venezuela's Josef Martinez made it 3-1 from the penalty spot with a quarter of an hour remaining.
"In the first half we created chances but they scored twice when we made mistakes," said Lautaro Martinez. "In the second half we did well and moved the ball about but they got that penalty. We need to keep improving."
And striker Dario Benedetto added: "Messi is the best player in the world and we have to adapt ourselves to fastest way possible to him."
After the match, Venezuela boss Rafael Dudamel said he would give up the post due to political situation that surrounds the team.
The country has been embroiled in an ongoing political and constitutional crisis with more than 50 countries denouncing leader Nicolas Maduro in recognizing Juan Guaido as the interim leader.
A representative of Guaido posted a photo of a meeting with the team prior to the match and Dudamel said: "I have spoken with the vice president and I have put my job at the disposition of the directors because all this time we are navigating very turbulent waters. Everything has been politicized and I am the coach for the whole country."
Dudamel added he would continue as coach for Venezuela's next match on Monday against Catalonia.
Information from Reuters was used in this story.
As luck would have it, two of Atlanta United’s star players in Josef Martinez and Pity Martinez will square off against one another in a friendly between Argentina and Venezuela at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid. Both players are expected to start.

Angel Di Maria pulling out of Argentina’s national team camp with an injury opens the door for Pity Martinez to play alongside Lionel Messi and likely Paulo Dybala up front for La Albiceleste. Argentine manager Lionel Scaloni is rumored to deploy his side in a 3-4-3.
On the other side, Josef Martinez will pair up with Miguel Almiron’s Newcastle teammate Salomon Rondon as the pair will look to scrap and claw past an Argentine back line that is likely to feature some fresh faces that haven’t played together before in their careers.
Argentina and Venezuela are set to face off in an international friendly on Friday, March 22. Kickoff from Estadio Wanda Metropolitano in Madrid, Spain, is scheduled for 4 p.m. ET.
The fixture will mark the first in a pair tune-up contests as both South American sides prepare for this summer's Copa América in Brazil.
Lionel Messi was called up to the Argentine national team for the first time since appearing for his nation at the 2018 World Cup in Russia. The 31-year-old was absent from Argentina's squad for each of its past six matches since then. Argentina most recently defeated Mexico 2–0 in November.
The matchup marks the first time Venezuela's national team will convene for the first time in 2019. The group earned a pair of 1–1 draws against Japan and Iran during the previous international break in November.

The international break is in full swing, and the eyes of Atlanta United fans were on Madrid, Spain as Josef Martinez and Venezuela took on Pity Martinez, some guy named Lionel Messi, and Argentina. Argentina, a perennial world power, were expected to roll against Venezuela, who entered the night just 1-2-8 all-time against their CONMEBOL foe.
That wasn’t the case tonight for Vinotinto, who scored twice in the first half and once more in the second to top La Albiceleste 3-1. In an ironic twist, Josef Martinez came on in the 72nd minute for Salomon Rondon, Miguel Almiron’s teammate at Newcastle United. Just minutes later, after a penalty was given to Venezuela, César Farías turned to Atlanta’s star striker to take it. And Josef didn’t miss for his first goal for his country since 2016.

Yes, it’s only a friendly, but this is a quite famous victory ahead of this summer’s Copa America for Venezuela, just its second over Argentina. It’s Josef coming out on top in this battle of Atlanta United teammates - could he and Pity clash again later this year in the CONMEBOL tournament?
