Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni said the grass was to blame for his team's underwhelming performance in the 2-0 Copa America win over Canada. The artificial turf at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, home of NFL team Atlanta Falcons, was changed to grass two days ago - after Atlanta United had played on the artificial turf - and Scaloni said it was why his team were leaving passes under-hit and miscontrolling the ball. After going in at halftime goalless and Canada impressing, Argentina secured victory with two goals created by Lionel Messi and scored by Julian Alvarez and Lautaro Martinez.
