Messi and Argentina now go for a historic undefeated

The conquest of the Copa América in Brazil served to unload a very heavy backpack. The pleasant path to Qatar 2022, with a guaranteed classification long before the end, enhanced the calm scenario. Now only the last chapter of the South American Qualifiers is missing, a season that will not be a simple procedure. Messi and Argentina They have in Ecuador a more than seductive hook, nothing less than the possibility of catching a historical record…

This Argentine National Team, renewed after the resounding failure in Russia 2018, has not lost 30 games, with 20 wins and 10 draws. He currently holds the longest undefeated record in the world. However, if he manages to hold it against Ecuador, he will also equal the highest record for matches without defeats in albiceleste history, drawn between 1991 and 1993 by that formation led by Alfio Basile.

That team, which among other players included Gabriel Batistuta, Claudio Caniggia, Diego Simeone, Oscar Ruggeri and Sergio Goycochea, went through 31 games without a hitch, with 18 wins and 13 draws. The Selection of Scaloni and Messi, at least, want to reach them. What a goal…

The match will be played in Guayaquil, starting at 00:30 on Spanish Wednesday. It will be on a party stage set up by Ecuador, which will celebrate its qualification for the World Cup, under the leadership of a studious, calculating, intelligent and winning Argentine coach: Gustavo Alfaro.

Lionel Scaloni did not announce the formation, but he will make some changes. Will it include Gonzalo Montiel, Exequiel Palacios and Julián Álvarez as starters? Will Angel Di María start?

They’re details. The bottom line is that the albiceleste has something to get excited about for the World Cup. And she enjoys. The symbol is Messi. He enjoyed a party on Friday at the Bombonera. He was happy to share it with the fans, singing along with them. She smiled with her family on Saturday night, in a theater in Buenos Aires. Everything that she does not find in Paris is offered by Argentina. She now has an all-time record at hand. After his phrase after the victory against Venezuela assuring that after the World Cup he is going to rethink many things, will it also be the last time for 10 in the Qualifiers?
