Argentina's 2019 Copa America campaign got off to a rocky start on Saturday as Colombia scored two goals in the second-half to win 2-0. Lionel Messi's Argentina as always entered the game with high expectations, and with a youthful squad and new pieces around Messi, the team did next to nothing.
Argentina although had the better moments overall when it came to possession, but none of their shots really felt like they were going in. Messi missed a tricky header inside the box when it was 0-0;but then it was mere long-range shot that didn't look all that great, aside from a Leanodo Paredes effort.
Goals from substitute and later announced man of the match, Roger Martinez and also substitute, Duvan Zapata sealed the victory for Colombia.
Argentina will next play against Paraguay in what looks like a must win match for them, while Colombia take on Qatar.
