The former captain of Los Pumas, Agustín Pichot, stated that a victory by the Argentine national team against the All Blacks "is no longer a feat."
It is worth noting that throughout history, the Argentines have only managed to win twice in Oceania, while in the 1980s, they drew once when playing at home.
On Saturday, starting at 6:10 p.m., at the Mario Kempes Stadium in Córdoba, Argentina and New Zealand will face each other in the first round of the 2025 Rugby Championship.
A large crowd is expected, as all tickets have been sold. "It's going to be a rugby celebration," said Pichot.
Regarding the possibility of Los Pumas defeating the All Blacks, he pointed out: "They've already done it. It's no longer a feat for them to win. The team's maturity in recent years and the way they've been working... I hope they play a great match. I don't think it will be easy, but they have a very good team to play and beat them."
Pichot and his bet on Milei's Argentina
Agustín Pichot, a well-known TV and energy entrepreneur, highlighted the macroeconomic corrections promoted by the government led by Javier Milei, and called for stability.
"I still believe in and bet on Argentina. The country continues trying to find stability with Javier Milei. That's what it needs," he said.
