After Argentina s men s national football team "rejected" Japan and South Korea, they were in trouble because they couldn t find an opponent due to a huge offer.

"Too greedy"! After the Argentina men's national football team "rejected" Japan and South Korea, they were in a dilemma because they could not find an opponent due to a huge offer. In order to break this situation, the Argentina men's national football team will play Angola in Luanda away from home on November 14. In this regard, the local media called it a "strange tour".

The Argentine men's national football team finally arranged only one game against Angola, an African team that did not qualify for the World Cup.

According to the Argentine Football Association's announcement on October 24, local time, during the international competition week in November, the Argentine men's national team, which was previously rumored to play against Japan and South Korea, finally arranged only one game against Angola, an African team that did not qualify for the World Cup.

Tyc Sports, a major media outlet in Argentina, recently reported under the title "Strange Tour": "It was originally planned to have two games, but due to failure to find other opponents, only one game could be played." In addition, the Korean media "Xports" News" reported: "(Argentina) failed to achieve a warm-up match with Japan and South Korea, and instead successfully matched with Angola, ranked 89th in the world, which was a 'humiliating defeat'."

The media criticized: "This is the result of the excessive greed of the Argentine Football Association. South Korea and Japan originally had a positive attitude towards hosting a warm-up match with Argentina, the World Cup champion in Qatar and the world's top team. However, the Argentine Football Association "In the end, Argentina missed the opportunity to play warm-up matches with South Korea and Japan due to excessive demands, and could only play one game with Angola in November."

Japanese media commented that this was undoubtedly a bitter irony of the "arrogant attitude" of the world champion Argentina team. It is worth mentioning that in the 2025 U-20 Men's Football World Cup final held in Chile not long ago, the Argentina team lost to the Moroccan team and missed the championship. The game ended with Morocco winning 2-0, and Argentina missed their chance to win the title for the seventh time. The post-match report of the Argentine media "Cronica" stated that "the defeat in the fanatical expectation is particularly heartbreaking." At the same time, it also praised the struggle of this young national team: "However, we must praise these children. They showed a wonderful game. Although it was regrettable that they failed to achieve their wishes, they fought until the last minute and proved that the future is promising."
