Argentina to face Mauritania and Zambia at La Bombonera | OneFootball

The national team will face the African squads on Friday the 27th and Tuesday the 31st of March at La Bombonera.

It's official: after missing out on the Finalissima against Spain, the Argentina National Team will finally play two friendlies during this FIFA double matchday. On March 27, they will play against Mauritania, while on the 31st, they will not face Guatemala as previously planned, but Zambia instead. Both matches will take place at La Bombonera, with live broadcast on TyC Sports.

Both games against the African teams will be held at 8:15 PM. Neither Mauritania, ranked 115th in the FIFA rankings, nor Zambia, ranked 91st, represent a real test of character for the Albiceleste as Spain would have, but they will serve coach Lionel Scaloni as a testing ground to try out, 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 said. And he added: “Let’s all cheer for our National Team!”
