The national team will face the African selections on Friday, March 27 and Tuesday, March 31 at La Bombonera.
It's a fact: after missing out on the Finalissima against Spain, the Argentine National Team will finally play two friendlies in this FIFA double date. On March 27, they will play against Mauritania, while on the 31st they will not face Guatemala but Zambia instead. Both matches will be held at La Bombonera, with live broadcast by TyC Sports.
Both matches against the African teams will take place at 8:15 PM. Neither Mauritania, ranked 115th by FIFA, nor Zambia, ranked 91st, represent a test of character for the Albiceleste team as Spain would have, but it will serve as a testing ground for coach Lionel Scaloni to experiment, adjust, and find the ideal team less than three months before the World Cup.
On another note, Tapia dedicated a special message to the president of Boca. "I want to thank Juan Román Riquelme for making La Bombonera available and allowing the Argentine people to bid farewell to the Albiceleste before traveling to the World Cup," he stated. And he added: "Let's all cheer for our National Team!"
