Nico Paz shares stress data while on bench for Argentina vs Switzerland

Nico Paz experienced high stress during Argentina's quarterfinal match against Switzerland on July 9, which ended in a 3-1 victory after extra time. Spending the entire match on the bench, Paz shared a screen capture of his stress-monitoring app showing a reading of 2.7, classified as high. This technology, which measures body strain based on heart rate, has FIFA approval and is used for the first time this World Cup. As a result, Paz, alongside teammates Giuliano Simeone and Valentín Barco, has yet to play a minute in the tournament, likely remaining on the bench for the upcoming match against England.
