After the victory against
Bolivia
, the
Argentine National Team
coach
,
Lionel Scaloni
, reached the 17-game mark without losing in a row with ten wins and seven draws.
The last defeat?
That
2-0
against
Brazil
in the
Copa América 2019
with goals from
Gabriel
Jesús
and
Firmino
.
Recently the National Team coach was asked about this brand and he replied that he did not care, that he preferred to focus on the team's operations.
Scaloni
and his coaching staff are one victory away from reaching the mark that
Marcelo
Bielsa
achieved in
2000 and
2002, with
18
games
.
On the other hand,
Scaloni
already surpassed a
Stábile
mark
and tied another by the same coach.
The first, with
14
matches in a
row, had taken place between 1946 and 1950, while the second, of
17
like the current one, was between 1956 and 1957.
Far away is the record that
Coco
Basile
achieved
in 1991 and 1993. El
Coco
, a
two-time
Copa America
champion
, reached
31
matches in a
row unbeaten, a mark that no one has been able to overcome so far.
Will
Scaloni
be able
to overcome it?
17- Lionel Scaloni has 17 games without losses (10V 7E) and equaled Guillermo Stábile as the coach with the third longest streak without falls in the history of @Argentina.
If he does not lose to Ecuador, he will tie Marcelo Bielsa (18).
Unbeaten.
