Dybala impressed by Argentina's improved spirit
An improved atmosphere in the squad is responsible for Argentina's third win in five games, according to Paulo Dybala.
Paulo Dybala praised Argentina's new-found team spirit under interim boss Lionel Scaloni after their 2-0 friendly win over Mexico.
Dybala played 72 minutes as Argentina eased to victory in Cordoba thanks to Ramiro Funes Mori's header and a late Isaac Brizuela own goal.
The win means Scaloni – who took temporary control of the national team in August after their tumultuous World Cup campaign under Jorge Sampaoli – has won three of his five games in charge.
And Juventus forward Dybala believes their recent turnaround in form is down to an improved atmosphere in the squad.
"We are working well," he told reporters.
"I said it in the other matches as well, the group is very nice, and we are all available for what the coach asks.
