Midfielder Alexis Mac Allister celebrated the emergence of new players in the Argentina national team after the 2-1 victory over Mauritania and acknowledged that 'there is a lot of quality'. Mac Allister, a regular in the starting lineup of the world champions, congratulated the younger players and highlighted that 'kids who play good football always come out of this country, it makes me happy for them'. He also emphasized that 'the people's affection is always there. The idea is to free up the players next to me so they can be calm and express themselves freely'. Meanwhile, goalkeeper Emiliano 'Dibu' Martínez was highly self-critical following the 'Albiceleste's' poor performance: 'We have to play with a bit more intensity. One tries to do their best'.
