Alexis Mac Allister: Julian Alvarez scored one goal and set up another as Argentina continued their march toward a place in the 2026 World Cup with 3-0 home victory over Chile.

The hosts broke the deadlock just after halftime through Alexis Mac Allister, who swept home a first-time effort after Lautaro Martinez allowed Julian Alvarez's cross to pass through his legs.

Alvarez doubled the advantage with a 20-yard drive that rebounded in off the underside of the crossbar, reports Xinhua.
