Argentina return to action at River Plate’s Estadio Mâs Monumental, hosting Venezuela in their final home game of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
La Albiceleste secured their place in next summer’s World Cup already and are looking ahead to defend their crown. However, the game against Venezuela will be a momentous occasion regardless.
Lionel Messi will likely play his final official home game with La Albiceleste against La Vinotinto, as Messi himself admitted. The iconic Monumental will be rocking as thousands upon thousands of Argentina fans cram the stadium to celebrate their hero.
For Venezuela, though, this game is of massive importance. La Vinotinto currently holds the final spot for an intercontinental playoff berth. Fernando Batista’s side have a one point lead over Bolivia and the next two games will determine if they get a chance to play for their first-ever World Cup appearance.
Here’s how you can watch Argentina’s clash vs. Venezuela.
