At a time when preparations for the World Cup are becoming intense, the Argentina national team has officially announced its opponents for the upcoming friendly matches. For “Albiceleste” fans, June will be a month full of important tests.
According to the Argentine Football Association, the team will play two friendly matches in June. On June 6, the Argentinians will take the field against Honduras. On June 9, they will face another test against Iceland. Interestingly, both matches will be held in the United States, which is considered an important opportunity to adapt to World Cup conditions.
At the moment, Argentina is heading to the World Cup as the reigning champion. In the group stage, the team will compete against Algeria, Austria, and Jordan. This group is not considered easy — each opponent has its own unique style.
It should be noted that in the previous World Cup, Argentina under Lionel Scaloni won the dramatic final against France. The regular time ended 3:3, and in the penalty shootout the Argentinians lifted the trophy.
Now the team has a new goal — defending the championship title. Preparation is already going on in “iron discipline”.
