This could be a night of celebration for Argentina tomorrow if they avoid defeat against the rivals of Brazil in Buenos Aires.
Last week’s victory in Uruguay – gracity of the wonderful objective of Thiago Almada – pushed the men of Lionel Scaloni to the qualification for the final of the World Cup next summer while they are looking to defend the crown they won in Qatar in 2022.

Almada intervened in a missing avant-garde line Lionel Messi, Lautaro Martinez and Paulo Dybala to score the only goal of Montevideo.
Scaloni said later: “We had very important absent, but we have great players to go out on the field. The team is always more than the names.”
Argentina can even qualify before the Brazilian match if Bolivia fails to beat Uruguay in a match that starts four hours earlier.
Be that as it may, the Albiceleste is in a very strong position, just like Brazil for whom the victory against Colombia last week means that they are almost certain to move forward.
Paris Saint-Germain defender Marquinhos said: “We knew how important it could be, after two prints, and our position in the table.
“Victory has given us a little tranquility, but here in the national team, we will never be satisfied simply because we have won.”
Wolves Matheus Cunha midfielder could start against Argentina and think that the two parties are very closely equal.
“I don’t think they are on a higher level,” he said. “I think they have a lot of know-how because of the titles they have. We have to respect this and recognize the right time they live.
“But I face an Argentinian week, week – Enzo [Fernandez] Or [Alexis] Mac allister and I think we have a level as high as theirs.
“I don’t think they have an advantage because it is 11 against 11.”
The game does not need additional spice, but Raphinha fought the fires in an explosive interview with the former Romario Brazil striker in which he said “F ***” Argentinian and said they would beat them “on and out of the field if we owe it”.
