The Argentine soccer team traveled to Paraguay for the tribute that Conmebol will pay them this Monday and then to Santiago del Estero to face Curaçao on Tuesday at the Madre de Ciudades stadium.
After the Sunday rest, the team returned to training from 10:30, behind closed doors, and there coach Lionel Scaloni decided to define the team that will face the exotic Caribbean side, who just lost 2-0 against Canada in the League of Nations Concacaf.
After training at the Lionel Messi stadium, the players had lunch and rested until 3pm, when they departed on a charter flight to Asunción.
The giveaway organized by Conmebol for the world champions in Qatar 2022 was scheduled for 18:00, in advance of the draws for the Copa Libertadores and Sudamericana.
The delegation, led by Captain Lionel Messi, will spend less than two hours in the Paraguayan city of Luque, as it is scheduled to depart for Santiago del Estero on the same charter flight at 19:30.
The friendly against Curaçao, the second and last of the first FIFA double appointment of the year, will be played tomorrow from 20:30, as the final date of the celebrations that the AFA has organized for the Qatar 2022 World Cup winners.
