Another full training session

Tagliafico (calf) trained in full Friday and seems to be completely recovered from his injury, so he should see minutes against Austria, according to Diario Ole.

Analysis: Tagliafico missed the tournament-opening 3-0 win over Algeria, but it looks as if he'll be ready to face Austria on Monday. If that's the case, he should return to the starting lineup right away in place of Facundo Medina.

Trains with team, eyeing return

Tagliafico (calf) is training alongside his teammates and is expected to be an option for Monday's match against Austria, according to Gaston Edul of TYC Sports.

Analysis: Tagliafico was back in training Thursday, which is bright news for the defender after he was forced to go unused in the nation's opener due to a calf injury. The expectation is then for the left-back to be an option for minutes Monday, a major boost in fitness for him. However, he will likely begin his match on the bench, still ramping up minutes.
