The World Cup winner opened the scoring after one minute and 19 seconds, curling a finish into the top left corner from the edge of the box.
Substitute German Pezzella doubled the lead with a header in the 68th minute.
Argentina were playing their third fixture since lifting the World Cup in December, and their first outside of Argentina.
