Argentina’s national team has already secured its place in the quarterfinals of the 2024 Copa America, but that doesn’t mean it will take the match against Peru lightly. Coach Lionel Scaloni plans to rotate players, including captain Lionel Messi, to rest some starters and give opportunities to other members of the team. Find out what time they will play if you live in the United States, United Kingdom or Australia.
However, there is one statistic that does not favor Argentina in this type of match. On the two previous occasions in which the Albiceleste have won all their group stage matches (2007 and 2016), they have failed to lift the championship trophy. Despite this, Scaloni’s team has the opportunity to make history by winning all three group stage matches for the third time in its history. An achievement that would not only mean topping the group, but also a confidence boost for the rest of the tournament.
The last meeting between Argentina and Peru in the Copa America dates back to the 2007 edition, where the Albiceleste won 4-0. On that time, Argentina reached the final but were defeated 3-0 by a Brazilian team without their star players. Even if history tells us that there is no guarantee of success even when dominating the group stage, this squad has shown a great capacity for resilience and overcoming in recent years, as demonstrated by winning the 2021 Copa America and the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
With or without Messi on the field, Argentina will be looking to close the group stage with a victory and leave a good taste in the mouths of their fans. One more step on their way to the ultimate goal: lifting the Copa America for the second consecutive time.
