That's what number 10! Dybala scored for the Argentina national team for the first time in two years
AS Roma forward Paulo Dybala scored his first goal for the Argentina national team since the summer of 2022. Coming off the bench in a match against Chile, the player sealed the final score, securing his team's victory.
Details: On the night of September 6, Argentina hosted Chile in a World Cup 2026 qualifier. The home side earned a convincing 3-0 victory. One of the goals was scored by star player Dybala, who capitalized on a pass from Garnacho during added time. Interestingly, this was only Paulo's fourth goal for the national team.
Notably, Roma's leader wore the number 10 jersey in this match, as Messi was not called up for this squad due to an injury.
Quote: "I know this is not my number, we all know it's Leo's number. I tried to represent it as best as I could," Dybala said after the match.
Recall: The reigning world champions secured their sixth win in seven matches and continue to lead the standings. It's worth noting that six teams from South America will qualify directly for the World Cup, while the seventh-placed team will enter the playoffs.
