Lionel Messi has arrived back in Spain after pulling out of the Argentina Squad due to injury.
Salomon Rondon's strike in the sixth minute got things off to a bad start, before Jhon Murillo doubled the lead and Josef Martinez scored a third.
Lautaro Martinez pulled a goal back for Argentina but it wasn't enough, though Messi was able to get through the full-match despite his injury concern.
Thankfully for the five-times Ballon d'Or winner, the trip back to Barcelona was only a short one, given Argentina's clash had been held in Atletico Madrid's Wanda Metropolitano stadium.
However, a groin injury meant the 31-year-old had to return to Barcelona and could now miss the Champions League quarter-final against Manchester United.
