Argentina will face Uzbekistan, Guatemala and New Zealand

Argentina 2023 World Cup heats up after draw

The World Cup kicks off on May 20 with the opening match between Argentina and Uzbekistan at the Madre de Ciudads stadium in Santiago del Estero, and ends on June 11 at the Diego Armando Maradona stadium in La Plata.

Juan Pablo Sorin, the under-20 world champion in Qatar in 1995, and Franco-Argentine David Tresquet, the senior world champion in France in 1998, were also drawn.

Precisely, the former left back of River and Argentinos Juniors was in charge of taking out the light blue ball, knowing that Argentina, being the organizer, would be part of the first group to be the host nation.

Followed by other ranked teams, Uruguay, USA, France, Senegal and Italy.

Once the groups are distributed, Pod 2 (England, South Korea, New Zealand, Brazil, Ecuador and Colombia), Pod 3 (Nigeria, Uzbekistan, Japan, Iraq, Honduras and Fiji) and Pod 4 (Guatemala, Dominican Republic, Gambia, Israel, Slovakia and Tunisia).

As a rule, no team from the same confederation and confederation can meet in the first round, so Argentina has already avoided Brazil, Ecuador and Colombia from entering.

In the first Cyboriums there are CONMEBOL rivals like Ecuador and Colombia, and only New Zealand left in the third place, which is one of the most preferred by the managers.

New Zealand qualified for the World Cup without any problems and in the U-19 Oceania Cup they beat Fiji 3-0. They have failed to reach the round of 16 in three historic appearances.

In Pot 3 time, the only tournament that cannot be there is Fiji, where Uzbekistan are out, having qualified comfortably from Asia and will have their World Cup opener on May 20 at the Madre de Ciudads Stadium. In Santiago, Estero.}
