Messi and Benzema worry Argentina and France

The Argentine trained outside the group this Saturday and the Frenchman withdrew injured

MADRID, 19 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The stars of Argentina and France Leo Messi and Karim Benzema left their respective training sessions this Saturday in preparation for the imminent World Cup in Qatar, with certain alarms, greater in the Real Madrid player, about his state of form.

The Frenchman, recent Ballon d'Or, has suffered a hamstring injury for the last month with Real Madrid and began the training session for France by doing a separate training session. Benzema went to train with the rest of the group this Saturday but left the session early.

From France, the concern is greater now since, after leaving training and, in the absence of official confirmation, media such as L'Équipe and RMC report that Benzema is injured. Thus, the striker is not only a doubt for France's debut against Australia next Tuesday, but his presence in Qatar may be in danger.

Meanwhile, from the Qatar University complex in Doha, the Argentina team has its captain between cottons, a Messi who this Saturday did not train at the pace of his teammates either. The '10' did work separately, an image that worries fans of the albiceleste in their dream of a third World Cup.

The coach Lionel Scaloni has been spreading the alarm that he has a team with an uneven shape and, in fact, on Thursday Nicolás González and Joaquín Correa had to leave the concentration, replaced by Ángel Correa and Thiago Almada.

However, after a gym session on Friday and, now, a differentiated training session, the focus is on Messi, although on Wednesday he played against the United Arab Emirates for 90 minutes. Argentina debuts in Qatar 2022 on Tuesday against Saudi Arabia.
