translated from Spanish: No Qualifiers, Argentina closes close to closing a friendly with Ecuador

Finally, Conmebol and FIFA’s efforts to over-bend the authorities of England and Germany, regarding their international and protocol policy to cede players to the national team, did not take place and the decision of the member federations was to de-date the double day of Qualifiers.Argentina had scheduled its first match against Uruguay in Santiago del Estero , a stadium that opened with the Argentine Super Cup between Racing and River, and which already had a commitment to the AFA for the meeting to take place in that province, and then visited Brazil in Recife.

Against this first scenario, the Argentina national team continues with the usual protocols and the preparation of the bubble to receive the footballers called on the FIFA Date that stands and that will have participation in Europe, mainly, starting its classification to Qatar 2022.With this situation, the plan that is handled in Ezeiza is that Lionel Scaloni can present a call for players , regardless of those who militate in the Premier League or the Bundesliga, to continue training and also to be able to organize a friendly in the aforementioned province of Santiago del Estero.In this situation, Claudio Tapia accelerates talks with the Ecuadorian Football Federation, a team that was already a rival in the first day of the Qualifiers (1 to 0 in La Bombonera). On this occasion, it is hoped that most of the figures will be able to travel to take advantage of those weeks of parate and continue defining details.

Argentina would face Ecuador in Santiago del Estero on FIFA.

However, this could create a new impediment with a new institution and it has to do with Paris Saint Germain not risking the travels of Leandro Paredes and Angel Di María, usually called, or Mauro Icardi, so as not to commit to possible contagion or injury. For now, there is nothing defined, but Argentina could see activity again after the 2-0 win over Peru, in Lima, on November 17, and the chosen date would be Friday, March 26 or Saturday, March 27.
