conditional sentences
Hi, I need help with these conditional sentences:
1) I think that if Marcos ________________ (not/be) so angry that night, he and Ana _________________(still/be) together today.
2) Stephanie ________________(become) an international athlete if she _____________(train) harder when she was younger.
I've been told that the sentences use second conditional, but i strongly disagree. I hope someone can confirm that these sentences use third conditional.
