The Argentine national team comes with an almost perfect score in these South American qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup. The team’s great performance was evident in the high score against Chile, without the presence of two fundamental pillars of the team.
The Argentine national team has a golden opportunity this afternoon, when it faces Colombia in what promises to be one of the most electrifying matches of the qualifiers, not only because of the quality of both teams, but because it could be the revenge that the coffee growers have been waiting for.
The Copa América final left a bitter taste for Néstor Lorenzo’s team, after a fantastic championship. However, Lautaro Martínez’s effectiveness left the entire country silent, while on the other side, millions celebrated the achievement of another trophy for the Scaloneta.
Now, the national team will have the responsibility of defending the World Cup, and will easily qualify if they win this match.. There are several doubts about today’s match, especially due to the weather and the time at which the match was decided.
One of Scaloni’s complaints, which he confirmed at a press conference, was the timing, as the match will be played at 3:30 p.m. local time in a country where temperatures can be really stifling, especially in the afternoon.
