Mikel Merino said he and Lautaro Martinez are in a similar situation ahead of the World Cup Final, with both players unsure whether they will start for Spain and Argentina, according to Yahoo Sports. Merino said it is not the ideal plan for any player to begin on the bench and added that both men are part of strong national teams. Spain meet Argentina in the World Cup Final tomorrow, Sunday, July 19.
Merino also praised Lionel Messi, calling him one of the best players in history, and said Spain are facing the reigning World Cup champions as an added incentive. Spain have matched Italy’s unbeaten record by going 37 matches without defeat in all competitions, and they would break that mark if they beat Argentina tomorrow.
