This Tuesday could be a big day for the Argentine Under-23 national team. This is the whole of Javier Mascherano can satisfy the first objective proposed in pre-Olympic football this is disputed in Venezuela. Starting from 20:00 (Argentine time) he will face kilos for the fourth appointment of Group B at the Misael Delgado stadium, in the city of Valencia, with television TyC Sports AND DSport.
The Albiceleste has it an unbeatable opportunity advance to the quadrangular final a date before the closing of the group stage and fully concentrate on the second phase of the competition which will begin next Monday in Caracas and provide the two tickets for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
The victory against Peru (2-0) on the second day and the results of the third, in which Argentina was free, paved the way for entry into the top four of the Pre-Olympic. The “Albiceleste” is the group’s escort with 4 units, three behind leaders Paraguay – they will rest tomorrow – and above Chile (3), Peru (3) and Uruguay (0).
If they win this Tuesday, Argentina and Paraguay will advance to the round because Peru, who will face Uruguay in the previous round, will be free on the last scheduled date on Friday.
If Argentina does not beat the Chileans, they will have to resolve their classification in the Rio de la Plata classic with Uruguay on the final day, which will also include Chile and Paraguay.
Mascherano thinks about a substitution he already tried in the match against the Peruvians: the introduction of the San Lorenzo defender Gonzalo Luján for the Argentinos Juniors scorer, sold to Racing, Marcos Di Césare, accused of a muscle problem.
