The Argentine National Team is already fully involved in a new FIFA date. With a view to the Copa América in the middle of the year, the Albiceleste will face two friendlies: the first, this Friday at 9 pm against El Salvador in Philadelphia, and the second on Tuesday at 11:50 pm against Costa Rica and in Los Angeles.
Looking ahead to the first of the games, the National Team began the week of preparation on Monday at the training camp of the Philadelphia Eagles, the local American football team, which is slowly beginning to prepare for the 2024 NFL season.
The Águilas authorities did not want to miss the visit of the Albiceleste and the president of the institution, Don Smolenski, gave Scaloni a team shirt with the number 1 and his name on the back. And incidentally, they shared the images on the Instagram account, with more than 3.5 million followers, inviting people to buy tickets for Friday’s game, which will be played precisely in the stadium where the Eagles are home.
Lionel Messi, the big absentee for the Argentine National Team’s friendlies in the United States
Lionel Messi suffered a “small injury to the hamstring of his right leg” in Inter Miami’s duel against Nashville FC for the Concacaf Champions Cup, a match in which he left five minutes into the second half. In this way, he will not be available to Lionel Scaloni for the friendlies against El Salvador and Costa Rica.
