These matches are part of the preparation for the 2026 World Cup, which will be held in the United States, Mexico, and Canada. Meanwhile, the Albiceleste's schedule will continue in November with an unprecedented tour of Asia and Africa, between the 10th and 18th, with matches in Luanda (Angola) and Kerala (India). The opponents have not been determined yet, but the AFA is looking to finalize them in the coming days.
First, finish the Qualifiers
Meanwhile, the squad is focused on the imminent match against Ecuador, which will take place on Tuesday, September 9 at 8:00 PM at Estadio Banco Pichincha in Guayaquil. The last training session included speed and coordination drills, a formal soccer segment led by Scaloni, and a final small-sided game. Among the highlights, young players Claudio Echeverri and Valentín Carboni got minutes with the senior team.

In addition, the coach is considering changes required by the absences of Lionel Messi and Cristian Romero, and the additions of Alexis Mac Allister and Leonardo Balerdi, among other players.
Beyond the obvious changes, the coaching staff will take advantage of the team's current position in the Qualifiers (undisputed leader and already qualified several rounds ago) to give playing time to the rest of the squad and test alternatives.
