Argentina National Football Team will face the challenge of Venezuela in the FIFA World Cup Qualifiers match on 11th October 2024 at 2:30 AM IST at the Estadio Monumental de Maturín Stadium in Venezuela.
Lionel Messi is back with the Argentina squad after recovering from his ankle injury that he suffered during the 2024 Copa America Final against Colombia. Goalkeeper Emi Martinez will be left out of the squad as he will serve a two-match ban imposed on him by the FIFA disciplinary committee.
Nico Gonzalez, Paulo Dybala, Cristian Romero, and Alejandro Garnacho; all will miss the match against Venezuela on 11th October due to health issues or injury concerns.
Argentina Coach Lionel Scaloni stated in the press conference:
"We must take advantage of the players who are in Argentine football, bringing in out-of-date European footballers today seems impossible to us."
"The team will always come forward. We have a great squad, but we always prefer to have everyone available to choose from based on what we call up. This time we have had a series of problems."
"Venezuela is a very good rival, physically and football-wise. It is a rival to be reckoned with, respected, and we will approach the match as it deserves."
