The countdown has begun for a historic event for the sport in Córdoba: for the first time, Los Pumas and the legendary All Blacks will face each other in this province.
The match will take place on Saturday, August 16, starting at 6:00 p.m. at the Mario Alberto Kempes Stadium, for the first round of the Rugby Championship.
The match will be notable because the albiceleste squad led by Felipe Contepomi is filled with players from Córdoba, among whom Juan Cruz Mallía and Santiago Carreras stand out.
The Argentine delegation will arrive this Thursday and will stay at the Quorum Hotel, on La Voz del Interior Avenue, and will train at the Palermo Bajo club.
Los Pumas' agenda in Córdoba
Meanwhile, the New Zealanders will be based in Buenos Aires and will arrive in the Docta only two days before the match. They will spend the night at the Quinto Centenario Hotel, near downtown.
This Wednesday was the official presentation of the match. For the occasion, a press conference was held in which the Minister of Government of the province of Córdoba, Manuel Calvo, expressed his satisfaction with the organization of an event of such magnitude.
