Placed in Group C, along with Mexico and Poland, Argentina challenge Saudi Arabia for their entry into the World Cup in Qatar.

Crowned world champion twice, in 1978 and 1986, the

Albiceleste

dreams of touching the Grail again.

And what better than the latest from Leo Messi, his best player for two decades, to achieve this?

All of Argentina behind its golden generation

3rd in the FIFA rankings, Argentina qualified for the competition after finishing 2nd in the qualifiers for the South American zone, 6 behind Brazil.

Beaten in 2018 by the French team, which will then become world champions, it is currently on cloud nine after an incredible series of 35 matches without defeat (26 wins and 9 draws), since September 2019.

Lionel Scaloni's men are largely favorites in this duel against the Green Falcons.

Carried by the aura of Leo Messi, it's a whole group that has been vibrating together since winning the 2020 Copa América at the Maracana against Brazil.

For its part, Saudi Arabia is ranked 51st according to FIFA and is one of the little thumbs of the World Cup.

The players of Frenchman Hervé Renard finished first in their pool during the World Cup qualifiers, ahead of Japan.

Neighbors of Qatar, the Saudis will be used to the climatic conditions and motivated to shine close to their land.

The party will be great, with 80,000 spectators expected in the stands of the Stade de Lusail.
