On Thursday night into Friday morning, the Argentina national team will take the field against the Venezuela national team as part of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The match will start at 02:30 Moscow time. According to the well-known journalist Gaston Edul, Argentina's head coach Lionel Scaloni plans to field either 20-year-old Nicolas Paz or 18-year-old Franco Mastantuono in the starting lineup.
So far, he has not decided which young star will play from the first minutes and which one will remain on the bench. Nicolas Paz plays for Italy's Como club, while Franco Mastantuono recently transferred from River Plate to Real Madrid.
The Argentina national team has already secured participation in the upcoming World Cup in March. This match will be important in demonstrating the team's preparation for the next stages.
