AFA Publishes Schedule for Argentina’s November Friendlies

Scheduled training slots and confirmed match dates with limited media access let Lionel Scaloni evaluate new players after the World Cup.

Overview

  • AFA published the official itinerary on Monday, calling 28 players to begin arrival that day with no activities planned for the first day.
  • The squad trains at the Ezeiza complex with a closed session at 10:00 on Tuesday and a 17:00 session on Wednesday that opens the first 15 minutes to accredited media.
  • A final closed training is set for Thursday at 17:00 followed by a Scaloni press conference with time to be confirmed.
  • Argentina will face Uruguay on Friday 13 November at 20:00 at La Bombonera and will play Costa Rica on Tuesday 17 November at the Mario Kempes in Córdoba with kickoff time still to be announced.
  • The two friendlies close Argentina’s 2026 international calendar and are being used as low-stakes opportunities to advance a post-World Cup renewal, with Nicolás Paz singled out as a leading youth candidate after recent goals.
