If there was one player who direly needed a goal in Argentina’s 2021 Copa America group stage fixture against Bolivia, it was Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez.
The Serie A star came into the fixture having failed to score in all four of his appearances with Argentina over the calendar year.
But finally, Martinez ended his notable goal-scoring drought with a key second half score against Bolivia.
After Bolivia failed multiple times to clear away the ball from its own penalty box, Martinez swooped in to score an effortless goal.

Overall, this is Martinez’s first open play goal since his score during Inter Milan’s 2-1 Serie A win over Sassuolo in early April.
