Argentina v Angola: The 7 vaccines the squad need before entering Africa | OneFootball

The Argentina National Team has a confirmed friendly match for the FIFA date and, contrary to what usually happens on most of its tours, this time it will only play one match. The national team of Angola will be the opponent for Lionel Scaloni’s squad, in a match scheduled for Friday, November 14.

The chosen venue for the friendly against the team ranked 87th in the FIFA ranking will be in Angolan territory. More precisely, in its capital: Luanda. And as is the case with any tourist or foreigner who sets foot on African soil, especially in the central Africa region, it is mandatory to take extra health precautions.

Angola is no exception to this, and for that reason, the players Scaloni decides to call up for the Argentina National Team’s next friendly will have to undergo a rigorous application of vaccines to prevent dangerous diseases.

The first to step up for the vaccine was Giovani Lo Celso. The midfielder will not be present in Real Betis’s Copa del Rey match because he missed the last training session to get vaccinated in Spain. However, in the coming days, the other called-up players will follow suit.

The only vaccine that is mandatory to enter Angola, and most African nations, is the yellow fever vaccine, but in reality, medical recommendations indicate that up to seven different types of vaccines are advisable for foreigners visiting African countries.
