On a record 36-game unbeaten run, the reigning Copa America champions will never have a better chance to deliver their captain and GOAT contender the one trophy the 35-year-old has yet to win in a glittering career. La Albiceleste begin their Qatar 2022 campaign against Saudi Arabia who have qualified for a second successive tournament and have the disciplined defence that has caused Tuesday’s opponents problems in the past.
Argentina have never approached a World Cup with such consistent form, solid plan and harmonious squad. La Albiceleste delivered a first senior international title since 1993 last summer by lifting the Copa America, also ending captain Lionel Messi’s own barren spell for his country. The fluid, tactical plan under coach Lionel Scaloni brings the best out of this team.
Nicknamed La Scaloneta after their coach, who went from caretaker to fundamental after getting the job in 2018, this team has a solid central midfield two in Rodrigo De Paul and Leandro Paredes to provide the ballast for Messi to create. With Angel Di Maria cutting in from the right and Lautaro Martinez a mobile centre-forward, the Flea finally has the freedom not to have to do it all himself. Over to you, Leo.
Saudi Arabia manager Herve Renard is the the only man to have coach two different teams to the Africa Cup of Nations glory and, as massive underdogs in a group that also contains Poland and Mexico, they’ll need every bit of experience that the Frenchman can muster, but the Green Falcons have been here before.
Memories of Saeed Al-Owairan’s mazy dribble through Belgium’s defence at USA 94 are still fresh in the Middle East, when the Saudis reached the last 16. Defensively solid – five of their seven wins in the final stage of qualifying were 1-0 – Renard’s side know each other well with Al Hilal club-mates Salem Al Dawsari (their best player), Mohamed Kanno and Salman Al Faraj heading up the midfield. Goals will be harder to come by. They scored just five in 13 games from November 2021 to this September but playing close to home could give them an advantage.
This Group C match kicks off at 10am GMT / 5am EST at the 80,000-seat Lusail Iconic Stadium at Qatar 2022. Make sure you know how to watch an Argentina vs Saudi Arabia live stream and see all of the FIFA World Cup 2022.
