The midfielder started for the 2022 World Cup winners alongside Rodrigo de Paul and Enzo Fernandez. He scored the opening goal of the game but was subbed off for Paulo Dybala with around ten minutes to go after suffering from “discomfort.”

“The team is fine, recovering from the game the other day, with some typical ailments,” he told the press. Mac Allister netted the first goal of the game, finishing off a superb team move by rifling home after Atletico Madrid forward Julian Alvarez threaded a beautiful ball across the face of goal.

He has played every minute of Liverpool’s season so far, forming an excellent midfield partnership with Ryan Gravenberch, with the pair key in setting the tempo for the team’s dangerous attacks. Meanwhile, Harvey Elliot was sent home from the latest England Under-21 camp for “further medical assessment” at Anfield.

Argentina’s clash against Colombia will see Mac Allister come up against a Liverpool team-mate in Luis Diaz as the two rivals go toe-to-toe for vital qualifying points. Mac Allister’s side are currently top of the CONMEBOL World Cup qualifying table for South American teams, with six wins from seven games and just one defeat giving them 18 points.

Uruguay are second with 14 points, with third-placed Colombia knowing they can close the gap to two points with a win. We also treat our community members to special offers, promotions, and adverts from us and our partners.
