Despite all the rumors caused by the opposition that indicated otherwise, the national government announced that both TV Pública and Radio Nacional will broadcast all the matches of the Argentina national team during the 2026 World Cup. The confirmation arrived this Monday through the Chief of Cabinet, Manuel Adorni, who detailed that the broadcast will be possible thanks to a commercial agreement.
"Televisión Pública and Radio Nacional will broadcast all the matches of the Argentina national team during the 2026 World Cup. Thanks to a commercial agreement, the cost of the broadcasting rights will not be covered with taxpayers' money. For everyone, without using everyone's money", wrote the official on his X account.

If it advances as first or second to the next stage, the team coached by Lionel Scaloni will face one of the two best-ranked teams from Group H, a group in which Spain and Uruguay appear as the main candidates. If it advances as one of the eight best third-placed teams, it will play against the winner of Group K, where powerhouses such as Portugal and Colombia are found.
