Argentina has already secured its place in the 2026 World Cup, but there’s still a lot at stake, especially with the upcoming home match against Venezuela tonight.
The Conmebol qualifying round wraps up next week, and Venezuela needs at least one victory in either tonight’s match or their final game against Colombia to finish in seventh place and qualify for the World Cup.
This might also be Lionel Messi’s last game with the Argentine national team on home soil. Although he hasn’t officially confirmed his participation in next year’s World Cup, both he and his family seem to be treating today’s match as a unique event.
“It’s a really special game. That’s why my family is here with me—my wife, my kids, my parents, siblings, and my wife’s entire family. That’s how we’re experiencing it,” Messi shared.
