- Lautaro scored four goals in Group A, at least once in each Argentina match.
- Inter Milan striker reaches 7 goals in the last 7 matches for the national team.
Having already qualified in advance at this CONMEBOL Copa América™, the current champion Argentina owes much of its great campaign to the great form of Lautaro Martínez. The competition's top scorer reached his 3rd goal in the 2024 edition against Peru, taking advantage of a great through ball from Ángel Di María to rock the nets of Pedro Gallese. Then, at the end of the match, he took advantage of a battle with the Bicolor defense to finish over the opposing goalkeeper to extend his mark to four goals.
Not only has he taken over the top scorer rankings at the moment, but the goal scored also extends an impressive run of form for the Inter Milan player. Now, he has reached a streak of 7 goals scored in his last 7 games for the Albiceleste, including a 'double' in a friendly against Guatemala. In addition to Peruvians and Guatemalans, he scored against Costa Rica, Canada and Chile (he drew a blank against Ecuador).
It is also worth noting that Lautaro scored goals in all three of Argentina's matches in Group A of CONMEBOL Copa América 2024™ as part of this scoring streak. Fans and his teammates will certainly expect him to keep up the momentum in the Quarterfinals – and what may come after that.
