Nehuén Pérez was the only one who had the privilege of being a starter. Colo Barco debuted, Garnacho flew and Facundo Buonanotte showed sparks.
The friendly against El Salvador served at least for Lionel Scaloni to give prominence to some of the youth players who appear from behind the old guard. For Garnacho, it was his fourth appearance with the light blue and white and the first after a summons in which he was not summoned. The blond from Manchester United entered after the break in place of Nico González.
